FarmVille: Irish limited edition trees come back for new Spain theme

I don't even know where to begin with this farmers, so we'll jump straight to the point. In a completely mind-boggling move, Zynga has re-released the formerly Irish-themed Irish Strawberry and Chinese Strawberry Trees as part of the brand new Spain limited edition theme in FarmVille. On top of this, they've changed the "Irish Strawberry" name to just "Strawberry." Don't be confused though - if you had purchased an Irish Strawberry Tree back in May, you'll retain all of your mastery points even with this tree's new name.

One thing that hasn't changed about these trees is their price. The Strawberry Tree costs 5 Farm Cash, while the Chinese Strawberry Tree is 10 Farm Cash. Remember, you can always earn these Chinese Strawberry Trees from Mystery Seedlings, so don't feel bad if you don't have the Farm Cash on hand to spend.

While it's not unusual to see FarmVille's limited edition items come back in new themes, it does seem a bit fishy that the name has been changed. After all, if you can release a "Chinese" tree during the "Spain" theme, why not an "Irish" one? Did they think no one would notice and purchase another? Perhaps I'm just being too cynical, but this is definitely a time to watch before you purchase, farmers. Make sure you're not unintentionally spending Farm Cash that you don't need to.

What do you think of this Irish Strawberry Tree's name change? Do you like seeing trees re-released so that you can stock up on more, or would you rather only purchase brand new trees?

FarmVille Spain Items: Andalusian Horse, Spanish Farmhouse, Outdoor Cafe and more

Are you ready to travel to Spain, farmers? Now you can! Well, not literally (sorry), but at least virtually on your FarmVille farm! Tonight's FarmVille update sees the launch of a new Spain limited edition item theme, full of not only new trees (ok, re-released trees), but also new animals, building and decorations. I'm sure buying these virtual items won't be nearly as exciting as actually traveling to Spain in the real world, but they can sure help to pass the time! Here's what's available:

Animals:

Galician Blond Cow - 16 Farm Cash
Andalusian Horse - 18 Farm Cash

If you're thinking "Wow, those prices are low for cows and horses!" you're right. Both of these animals are on sale for a limited time, with their eventual purchase price being 26 Farm Cash each. Of course, for either animal you also have the chance for breeding, if that at all increases your desire to make a purchase.

Buildings:

Spanish Farmhouse - 14 Farm Cash
Spanish Home - 350,000 coins

Like the animals above, the Farmhouse is also on sale, so you'll want to purchase one now before the price jumps up to 25 Farm Cash at a later date.

Decorations:

Thyme Flowerbed - 7,000 coins
Outdoor Cafe - 100,000 coins
Red Carnation - 7,000 coins

While it's great to see only coin items available, the selection here is rather small. It should also be noted that the Thyme Flowerbed and Red Carnation are rather small items, being the size of about a large planter, so you'd likely need to buy more than one to really make a statement on your farm.

Unfortunately, there just weren't that many items released in tonight's update, but that makes me think that more (many more) will likely be coming in the future. It's not like Zynga to release so small a theme without following up afterwards, and we'll make sure to let you know if they carry on with that tradition later this week.
