Sims with a green thumb enjoy planting seeds, taking care of plants, and spending a lot of time in the garden. Some plants are pretty common, while others are extremely rare.
For example, it takes a lot of time and effort to find and grow orchids. But the money they bring in is worth every minute of your time.
Where can I find Orchids in Sims 4?
Method 1: Buy rare seed packets
You can find Orchid seeds in rare seed packets. On average, you need to spend around 40-50K Simoleons on rare seed packets to find one Orchid seed. And when you do find one, make sure to plant it in the right spot, and water it regularly to help the plant sprout.
Be sure to regularly fertilize the plant to grow high-quality Orchids.
Method 2: Graft a Lily with a Snapdragon to make an Orchid
Sims that reached Gardening skill Level 5 can start grafting plants and obtain rare plants. Grafting a Lily with a Snapdragon gives you an Orchid. You can sell a planter of Orchids for 13,000 Simoleons. Growing orchids can bring in a lot of money in Sims 4.
There’s one major difference between the Orchids you get from buying seed packages and those you get by grafting. The Orchids you obtain by grafting are Magnificent, whereas the Orchids you grow from the rare seed packets are only Excellent.
You may want to keep this detail in mind when deciding on the method to use.
Both require a lot of time, patience, and determination, there are no shortcuts.
Method 3: Complete the Space Rock Collection
Sims with the Rocket Science skill that complete the Space Rock Collection will get a rare Orchid plant in their mailbox. You can then plant the Orchid in your garden.
