The Sims 4 released a free base game updated on July 1. This update featured improvements and items that were clearly made with the release of Enchanted by Nature in mind, as they focused greatly on the creation of whimsical and nature-riddled homes and buildings.

One of the improvements made with the free base game update was adding some plants to the Roof Sculptures category, making it possible for fans to put them on top of their roofs. This guide tells gamers how they can place plants and shrubbery on their roofs in The Sims 4 so they can create beautiful greenhouses and fairy homes.

How to Place Plants on the Roof in The Sims 4

Many plants in The Sims 4 are found in the Decorations tab. However, these are considered indoor plants, as most of them have a vase, and cannot be used as roof sculptures.

To place plants on the roof in The Sims 4, players must open the Build section in Build Mode and select the Roof Sculptures (represented by an icon of a chimney). Then, they can scroll through the various objects and find several plants. Alternatively, gamers can also visit the Outdoor Plants category in the Build section. They will find plants that can be placed on the roof in the Shrubs and Flowers category.

Before dragging the plants onto the roof, players should make sure that their view has the walls up and that it's on the top floor of the house so that the roof isn't hidden.

Lastly, all gamers need to do is select a plant that they like and put it on the roof.
