In the Sims 2, everything is colored brightly and cheerily. Everything, that is, except for the foliage. Our poor sims must contend with plants that look like -gasp!- real, dried out summer plants instead of picturesque perfection. Their fall plants are dull brownish hues, instead of the vibrancy that would make the chore of raking leaves worth it. And winter- well, they can deal with that. But sims deserve plants that are worthy of their environmental score. They deserve recolors!

Plants recolored:

Birch Tree Sapling
EasyShade Bay Tree
The Simple Weeping Willow

All of these plants only require seasons and the base game to work. Unfortunately, due to how the game handles the snow on trees, they will not display snow if they aren't in winter stage, but it's a small price to pay for four seasons of prettiness. You can say that some trees had a genetic mutation that caused their leaves to repel snow and gardeners selectively bred the trait, if it makes you feel better.
