Gardening Gnome

The Gardening Gnome is an NPC that Sims can create by casting the Enchant spell on a gnome made with the Woodworking Table. Gardening gnomes will water plants and tend to any gardens a Sim has - until the spell wears off or a magical Sim solidifies the gnome. If a gnome is enchanted on the second story of a lot, the he will jump down the stairs in a rabbit like motion.



If there is a nectar press on the lot, gnomes will occasionally swim around in it and then comically stagger around drunk for a few minutes. Also, if the charm Perfect Garden is cast on the lot while a Garden gnome, or an un-enchanted Garden gnome is on the lot, all of the gnomes will become enchanted regardless if your sim has the spell Enchant or not, and rampage through the lot, destroying you Sims garden. This is not the only way Garden gnomes can act violently, as if there is a Gardening gnome on your lot and your Sim already has an NPC Gardener on the lot, the Garden gnome on the lot will attack your Sims by stomping on their feet.

A dragon may play tag with a gnome. If Unleashed is installed, dogs and cats may do so as well.

No matter what the amount of Garden gnome's there are on the lot, all will become instantly enchanted if the charm Perfect Garden backfires on the caster.
