How does your Garden Look? (Pics Please)

I have been enjoying the game for a month now and we have all had time to test things out. So I was wondering what you prefer to do with your gardens. Pics of your favorite garden would be great. I personally have decided against the planter boxes unless it is in front of the house as a structured look or for trees. I have started planting fruit, vegetables, herbs and spices as a garden should be in rows and an area together. I am planting flowers in groups with flowers from buy/build mode.

    This is my most complete garden as my main sim in this house wanted to be a gardener. I have several areas where she grows her plants and took some pics to share:

    @Sparkysim2 Great idea for a thread! Your garden seems lush and nice, referring to your first picture :)

    @Willow WOW, I never saw that many cow plants in one garden before, must be quite fun (and dangerous) for kids to play there, LOL. Seriously,, I love your garden, it shows that your sims spend time there!

    I don't have any nice garden to show off yet, but I'll look out for something to post!

    Nice gardens! I think it takes to much time to mess with a garden.. I wish they had gardeners you could hire.

    Just feed him whenever his tongue cake pop's out and your good to go. They die if their tongue is out after 12 sims hours so they need some mystery packet meat or live meat before then. xD

    Haha thanks! The kids are safe from cow plants, the interaction to be eaten doesn't exist...yet. >:)

    It takes awhile to keep them all alive but the Sims run out to play with them more than any other activity on the lot.

    There is a mod for making gardening faster, less time tending them and whatnot, if you use mods that is. ;)

    I feed them when the tongue pops out, they always accept food then. ;)

    What a nice garden @Willow :)

    This save is now deleted but I was playing Ned trying to grow a big garden. I started a new save with him this time with no cheats so he has to build his garden back up.

    Thanks! And I like that screenshot of Ned and his garden setup, very nice! Hope he can rebuild his garden soon.

    @Willow outstanding. I think I've seen a garden of cowplants in a video, Was it yours? Great layout. @Simasaurus09 great garden. I have several using the plant box also. I quickly snapped a pic of my Asylum garden as it is now. I thought I had one with the plants grown, but couldn't find them.

    Thanks everyone. I hope to see more of your pics. @JayedTadaSkier all our gardens start one plant at a time. I think yours is looking fine. Now go out and build those Sims some beautiful gardens.

    @Panderer looking good. I like using walls to set an area off.

    @litabelaqua what a lovely garden. You created the perfect cottage style garden. I think my Aliens need a garden like that.

    Well mine with the path is at my Asylum so the patients, 8 Sims, keep it up, well 7 now. I had a hard time with it at first, but I like playing large households, usually 5 Sims so I just spread the love.

    Heh, well I have a decorative garden that has 1 strawberry plant in it (somewhere, LOL).

    I do have a section on the other side of the house you can sort of see that has interactive plants but don't have any regular pics of it.
