FarmVille Sneak Peek: Ice Tulips and Ice Roses coming for Winter?

While we may be in the middle of a large Halloween celebration in FarmVille (complete with Halloween items in the store, and even a Count Duckula Castle), it looks like some of the first Winter items have now been added to the game's files, but have yet to be released in the store. As of right now, it looks like two different ice crops are going to be released in the game: Ice Tulips and Ice Roses.

FarmVille Freak has discovered crop and bushel images for both of these crops, but while they don't necessarily scream Winter or Christmas, keep in mind that some ice-themed items were released last year, so it's not a far stretch. And while it might seem unusual for Zynga to already be preparing for store content so far in advance, keep in mind that these crops don't necessarily have to be released in December, as they have nothing to do with Winter Holidays, and could instead come out earlier. Or, if we're wrong with our Winter prediction, they could come out whenever the folks at Zynga decided they felt like it.

Either way, the inclusion of Bushels here tells us that we'll at least be able to master these crops faster by doubling our efforts, but whether or not they'll be used in any sort of themed crafting recipe remains to be seen. We'll make sure to stay on top of things, though, and will let you know as soon as we see these crops even mentioned in the game, let alone released.
