Graphical Errors

★ Apprentice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
What is your current game version number? 1.69.59.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Cats and Dogs, Vampire, Dine Out, Holiday
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Plant a tree (might need to be apple), and take care of it for a few days. For the second, just turn Whims on and finish a few/ cancel a few.
What happens when the bug occurs? In the case of the tree, it displays the 'needs water' model, and in the case of the whims, one will no longer be visible (though I don't know if it's actually gone or is just not showing the model for some reason)
What do you expect to see? The trees' appearance should be based on its needs, and another whim should pop up if one is canceled or finished.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I was able to fix the apple trees' model by turning testing cheats on and clicking reset, but the whims don't respond if I reset the Sim.  These both just happened on the same save, so I don't know if it's save-wide, household-wide, or game-wide.

The whim was a graphical error.  It started acting normally when I 'fulfilled' the whim, replaced by a visible one.

Hero
@whitejade1979 Could you add a picture ?

Can you replicate it if you try again ?

Good Luck

I may be able to add a picture of the disappearing whims, but the tree was a one-off.

I have not been able to replicate the whim issue since I sent out the last reply.
