It's an ongoing problem with the harvestables. Ever since the last update, some of the harvestables are either black or a very dark brown in color. Others have this same problem, and reported it on EA's help page. My self included, so you're not the only one with the problem.
Grapes - (bluish purple, on the right side)..and...eww, ruined spinach (left side bush) ..
* forgot to say - it seems to be affecting some produce, but not all.
Recent update is when it first happened, for me.
I noticed recently that when my sim harvest the black ones, the next batch is normal. I haven't paid attention to see if they go back to being black again. I do hope they fix it with the next patch because it's really ugly and I don't want to have to send my sim to harvest everything.

I haven't harvested any, I only grew them to get the achiev., but I'll have to try this out. Thanks for sharin
Very much so. Although, and this had just recently happened to me in my game. And I don't know why, it maybe my computer that had made the change in this problem. And I don't know if others have seen this in their game either. But back when I had first experienced this problem. The onions where affected in my game as well. So the onions started out has all black or very dark brown. But now the onions in my game have just this tinny little brown spot on top, and the rest of it looks normal.

It is a known bug that has been affecting many players

I know that some of the harvestables coming out black is a known bug that's been experienced by many players. But I haven't heard any other player saying that the onions in their game are near normal now.
Bluebells and snapdragons are still black for me even after harvest and regrow. I suppose I could replace affected plants on lots, but what about wild plants in uneditable parts of the world?
ETA that I did try harvesting the wild plants, but they grew black flowers again....
I am sorry to hear that you are still having issues with the black plants. Are these plants new plants? The fix doesn't help fix plants that were affected before the bug was fixed.

This is from the patch notes
Fixed an issue where produce grown from seeds appeared all black. Existing black produce will stay that way, but new plants should appear properly.
