Well, The Sims has some gardening in it. Plant flowers, and don't hire a
gardener, or water them yourself, and they die. The Unleashed expansion
pack added vegetables gardens that you need to weed and water, and then
you can harvest them, and save money on your grocery bills.

My daughter is always sending me new downloads to add to the Sims. One
of them was a clover patch. After making a nice little clover lawn, I
discovered there were leprichans living in it. They will sneak in your
house and steal anything they can carry away.

When your yard is snow covered almost any yard will be fun to play in.
