They usually contain [[plant\|harvestable plants]] or decorative plants, like trees, flowers or bushes, which are occasionally framed by [[fence]]s. Other types of decoration that can be used are [[pond]]s, rocks and certain types of decoration from the [[buy mode]], like the [[scarecrow]]{{Vgversion\|TS:U}}{{Vgversion\|TS2:S}}{{Vgversion\|TS3:S}}{{Vgversion\|TS4:S}} or the [[wishing well]]{{Vgversion\|TS2:S}}{{Vgversion\|TS3SE}}{{Vgversion\|TS4RGS}}. ==Decorative plants== {{See also\|List of decorative plants}} Decorative plants ~~are~~can be bought from the [[~~Build~~build mode]]~~.

Gophers and rabbits can be chased by a [[Cat#The Sims: Unleashed\|cat]] and cold weather can be avoided by growing plants in a greenhouse. The plants have to be watered and weeds need to be pulled.▼ They require more care than decorative plants, but there are the same actions (pulling weeds and watering the plant). The produce can be sold in [[Old Town]]{{Vgversion\|TS:U}}, in the [[Supermarket]]{{Vgversion\|TS3}} or consumed. ▲There are several obstacles to this type of gardening: Gophers and rabbits{{Vgversion\|TS:U}} and cold weather{{Vgversion\|TS2:S}}.
