In a couple of recent games, when i setup a plantation on Regents and Incense it fails to show up on a connected city screen and the floating help bar says Regents (Willgar has 0). This is the case in my current game, playing as Hippus / turn 132 . I have looked through bug list and seen no mention so i assume i am just missing some obvious game element - anybody able to help?

Thank you,

Will
 
It's been covered in a few other threads, too. Reagents require Knowledge of the Ether to harvest. Incense requires Philosophy. You can build the plantations on these two resources, but until you have the appropriate secondary tech, you cannot harvest the resource. Same goes for mines. e.g. You can mine copper, but you cannot access it as a resource until you have researched bronze working. Mousing over an unimproved resource will tell you what tech(s) you need to harvest it. Building plantations on reagents and incense makes this go away, but you still need the other techs listed when you mouse over an undeveloped resource of the same type. It's irritating until you figure out which techs let you harvest what resources.
 
You're sure the plantation is connected? No holes in the road or anything?
Edit: Oh, and what ZhugeTien said :-p
