Orange [Harvestable Indoor Plant]
Bring the orchard indoors with the Orange [Harvestable Indoor Plant], a delightful new addition for The Sims 4 that turns your living room into a productive grove. This isn't just another decorative piece; it's a fully functional harvestable that fits wherever you'd normally place a decor plant. Whether you're building a cozy apartment or a sprawling mansion, this plant adds a fresh, practical touch to any indoor space.
What Makes This Plant Special?
The Orange [Harvestable Indoor Plant] is designed for Simmers who love gardening but lack outdoor space. You can place it on shelves, countertops, or any surface that supports decor plants. When you first purchase it, only the watering interaction is available. After a few in-game hours, the first batch of grown produce appears, and you can harvest it. From then on, the harvest interaction refreshes once a day, giving you a steady supply of fresh oranges.
Daily Care and Harvesting
- Water the plant once a day to keep it healthy.
- Harvest fresh oranges once a day, yielding 8 oranges per harvest.
- Oranges are tagged as fruit, making them edible for toddlers.
- Can be eaten raw or cooked in various recipes.
The plant is fully compatible with the SCCO (Sims Cooking and Canning Overhaul) mod, so you can integrate your harvest into more complex culinary projects. One thing to note: the animation is borrowed from regular water gardening. If you place the plant on a shelf, the watering animation will appear slightly lower than usual, but this doesn't affect functionality.
Why Add This to Your Game?
If you're looking for a way to make your Sims self-sufficient without a traditional garden, this plant is a game-changer. It's perfect for tiny homes, apartments, or any build where outdoor gardening isn't an option. Plus, having fresh oranges on hand means your Sims can whip up healthy snacks or hearty meals without a trip to the grocery store.
