The Sims 4includes a recipe for a dish with special abilities that bring the dead back to life, which has been brought back into the spotlight with the release of theLife and Deathexpansion. That recipe is Ambrosia,a dish that can revive a dead Sim if a ghost eats it. However, a living Sim might end up eating the Ambrosia first if it’s left in a location they can access, but all it does is reset their current age bar.
Given its abilities, it’s unsurprising that the ingredients you need to gather to make Ambrosia aren’t the easiest to collect. Having them, however, prepares you forunexpected deaths inThe Sims 4. Additionally, unlike most other recipes,you can’t simply purchase the missing ingredients at the time of crafting the dish. You must have all the ingredients beforehand, including the frustrating Death Flower.
How To Purchase Death Flowers
Buying From Caster’s Alley
Of course, The fastest option is purchasing a fully-grown Death Flower. Depending on which expansion packs you own, you have two choices for purchasing Death Flowers. If you have theRealm of MagicsupernaturalSimspack, you can pick up Death Flowers without many problems. This is because they can besold at the Potion Ingredient Shop in Caster’s Alley,located in thesecret world of the Magic Realm,on any given day. To get to Caster’s Alley:
The shop’s stock refreshes at midnight every night, so you’re able to check back daily to see if there are Death Flowers.
Another way to purchase Death Flowers is actually by opening Starter Flower Seeds, which you canpurchase using a computer or in Build Mode. However, the chance that you’ll pull one out of these packs is quite slim, and you need to open the packs while standing in a graveyard to have any chance to get one. Because of that, your best option if you don’t have access to Caster’s Alley is actually tolevel up your Sim’s gardening skill and get Death Flowers through the power of grafting.

How To Grow Death Flowers
The Power Of Grafting
The more common option for getting a Death Flower is growing it. If you manage to pick one up from a packet or in Caster’s Alley, you can plant it and grow more flowers from it. It’s onlyin season during winter, but you should be able to gather a handful of Death Flowers from the plant each time the season comes around. If you weren’t able to grab a Death Flower, however, you’ll need to hit Gardening Level 5 and do some grafting.
The Sims 4 Life & Death Was Inspired By This European Country
The Sims 4 has long included plenty of supernatural elements, but the Life & Death expansion takes impressive inspiration from real-life places.
A Death Flower requires three grafts to create, at most. You might be able to get an orchid from a seed packet; otherwise, you need tograft a lily into a snapdragon to create an orchid. You can do this by selecting the lily and choosing “Take a Cutting,” then selecting the snapdragon plant and grafting the cutting.
You also need a pomegranate, which follows a similar process to create. However, this time, you need totake a cutting from a cherry and graft it to an appleto get a pomegranate. Then, you finish the process bycutting from the pomegranate and grafting it to the orchidto get your final product: the Death Flower.
At the end of this process, you finally have your Death Flower, which is likely the most difficult ingredient for Ambrosia.All you need to finish the recipe is a Potion of Youth and an Angelfish to complete the recipe, and then you’re ready to bring the dead back to life inThe Sims 4.
