Released in [[:Category:Year_One_(1997)|1997]], the Pony Garden Playcase playset is one of the first two [[:Category:G2_Playsets|G2 playsets]]. While the Spanish release includes a variant of [[G2 Seabreeze#Spanish Seabreeze|Seabreeze]], the North American and other European playsets did not. There are no differences in the playsets, themselves.


The Garden Playcase is a modified [http://littlestpetshop.50webs.com/zooplayset.htm 1994 Littlest Pet Shop Zoo Playset]. Most notably, the zoo's double front gate is replaced with a single door that folds down to a stone- and floral-patterned courtyard. Also, the center divider in the playcase is plastic, whereas the divider in the Zoo playset is cardboard with a plastic trees and grass frame.


The front third of the playset is purple with a pink fold-down door and entry façade and a golden yellow handle. It is framed by molded purple brick columns with floral stickers at their bases. The pink door has a molded G2 pony in a garden on the outside and folds down to a stamped cobblestone and floral courtyard. The courtyard has six pegs on each outside edge to hold the playset’s two included fences. The entry façade is a pink molded garden scene with an oval G2 logo sticker surrounded by flowers in the center. Outside of the US, the sticker does not include the brand name. A pink latch with a butterfly sticker allows the door to open or lock closed.


The middle third is a molded aqua garden divider with a fence detail on each side. The center is open for ponies to pass through, and butterfly and flower stickers adorn each side. The divider’s front side also features a rainbow arch sticker over the fence and a large pink flower at the top center of the arch.


The back third is fuchsia with two golden yellow doors with sliding latches. The back is stamped with a climbing flower and brick design with a butterfly sticker. The doors are molded with an elaborate climbing flowers design and have oval stickers featuring different [[Core_Ponies#Generation_2|Core 4]] ponies in each top and bottom half of each door. When folded for storage, the case has two sliding aqua latches on its right side to keep it closed.


Inside the front third of the case, there is a golden yellow shelf above the door for accessory storage or play. Many butterfly and rug stickers are on the walls and floors. Inside the back third of the case, another golden yellow shelf is set above the doors. The back third features bird and butterfly stickers, as well as a garden fountain sticker. The bottom of the Playcase box features a cardboard picnic playmat that can be cut out to use with the playset.


The playset has two different accessory color variations that are a combination of blue and pink.
