I picked up Hearthfire a while ago and started enjoying the features. In fact, I assumed that the pre-Hearthfire houses in Skyrim must share the same features for similar characteristics. For example, my garden at Lakeview Manor was an awesome source of Alchemy ingredients. When I recently started my new PC I decided to shift my base of operations to Riftin instead of the Whiterun/Falkreath area. I scrimped and saved and toiled until the Jarl allowed me to buy Honeyside (complete with garden). Imagine my disappointment when I discovered that you can't plant that garden like you can at Lakeview. You can only harvest (there's got a good selection but not as good as my own preferences).
