EP5 seasonal trees spawning on built lots: unremovable by any means
Lorelei:
It looks like a Rorshach ink blot tree, all symmetrical. I don't recall the maples being quite so mirrored before.
Zazazu:
Hmm. No, they aren't quite that mirrored. I just had my first occurance of this bug last night even though I'm rather fond of the Japanese Maple. Took a sim downtown to the minimall and had four phantom trees on the lot. All that pink-leaved color even though I had maybe two pink-leaved ones in the neighborhood. Tons of custom-leaved ones, though....pretty much every lot uses them. I also had four large blue flashy-things in the distance view from a lot two spots down which I can't figure out the source of. They kind of looked like vertical churros. I'm thinking it must be custom content, but the shape isn't familiar.

I've had a lot of that with custom colors of Maxis trees -- Seasons just doesn't like them. I ended up deleting all the custom color files. The hydrangea and birch trees seem to be the ones with the most problems.
I also had the same problems with all the Numenor 'lost maxis trees'. I guess they're 'lost' because they're missing some code the game expects, but they were just big blobs of blue in both the neighborhood screen and on the lots after I installed seasons.

Had the blue shapes on a comm. lot just the other day, it's got plenty of CC on it yet everything was fine when I entered the lot; the weirdness was only in 'hood view. I have no idea which of these actions fixed it, but can't hurt to try: daub a bit of terrain on the affected lot and save, plunk down a new tree in the hood, or rebuy a few items for the afflicted lot and save. After entering a residential lot and exiting to the hood again, they were gone.
Edit: Just now saw that this is a temporary fix; a restart of my game and the blue shapes are back. *feels shame.
Havelock:
Seasons Trees needs now 3 Meshes for the real Tree and the same amount for the Lod. (everytime the state of the Tree or Shrub changes the game switches the Meshes not the Texture)
Your Game could not find the Lodmeshes and Textures so you get the blue flashing ones.
It is possible to make the custom Trees and Shrubs working with seasons but expect really big Packages.
Edit: Forgot to add Shrubs have more than 3 meshes, because the need the overgrown state also. So they need nine.
