The Sims 2: Seasons/Plant-Sims

Plant Sims are the new creatures that come with The Sims 2: Seasons. Plant Sims have green skin with vine-like tattoos, special leaf or flower made hair and yellow eyes. In order to become a Plant Sim, a Sim must spray their orchard trees or plants in excess. The Plant Sim condition can be "cured" if a Sim buys the Plantophic-C from the Garden Club or the Gypsy, a NPC available in The Sims 2: Nightlife expansion pack.

Plant Sims only age within three life stages: Toddler, Adult and Elder; thus, they lack the Baby, Child, and Teen stages, nor Young Adult. Besides aging differences, they have three needs: Sunlight (satisfied by going outside or using a sun lamp), Water (satisfied by taking showers or baths, being outside in rain, or by swimming) and Love (equivalent to the Social need). Plant Sims also gain a prank interaction, the ability to spawn offspring and release spores of happiness, which boost nearby Sims' needs. Spawned offspring have a gold gardening badge and the same skills and personality as their parent. They also have a 50 percent chance of inheriting the other, non-gardening talent badges from their parent. Plant Sims cannot enter the Very Hot temperature level and will never get heatstroke. If their overall mood drops below zero or their water level is very low, Plant Sims will appear wilted.

Plant Sims can also reproduce by WooHoo (both getting pregnant and impregnating). The resulting child will not have any Plant Sim traits, and will carry the genes for whatever hair and eye color the parent Plant Sim had before their transformation.

A Plant Sim is included in the new Seasons neighborhood, Riverblossom Hills. She lives in the Greenman household with her (non-Plant Sim) husband and (Plant Sim) spawned child.
