Gardening is one of the most satisfying activities in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, both from a material and an intangible one. If you want to make your island look nice, you can buy flower seeds and plant them about. This, however, is nothing exceptional. A gardener’s true potential can only be realized if he or she can master the art of flower breeding. Varieties of the flowers you may grow in the garden, as well as the elusive gold roses, are included in this collection of hybrids.

It’s a good idea to have at least a few hybrid flowers on your island, as they can attract uncommon bugs that you wouldn’t otherwise receive and can also be utilized as crafting supplies. There are a lot of specifics in the ACNH Flower Research datamine for this guide, such as flower genes and availability.

Types Of Flowers

Keep in mind that you’ll need a ladder to scale the cliffs when you start the game with a specific sort of flower on your island cliffs. At Nook’s Cranny or from Leif when he pays a visit, you can purchase more flower varieties (in seed form). The following image depicts the various kinds of flowers that grow in the area.

All flowers and hybrids in ACNH - Polygon

With the exception of windflowers, which initially appear in red, white, and orange variations, all of these flowers are available in normal red, white, and yellow colors. No yellow windflowers, no orange windflowers, and no hybrids of these two species exist Seed sacks are only available in these hues at Nook’s Cranny; all other colors are considered uncommon and unavailable.

Native Flowers And Sister Flowers

Every day, three different kinds of flowers will be available for purchase at Nook’s Cranny. Nook’s Cranny always carries the island’s only native flower, which you’ll find in plenty on your island. There is a second bloom that will always be available to you. In any given month, the third flower in stock can change from day to day depending on the month’s calendar. In May, the Northern Hemisphere enjoys the blooming of roses, tulips, and windflowers. If you don’t have a native or sister flower, you can find one of them every day in May at Nook’s Cranny if you don’t mind waiting.

Your beginning character’s birth month is used to decide which flowers are native to your island, and your sister flower is one of those blooms that was in season when you started your island. To find out what your sister flower is, visit a few Mystery Tour islands, where only your native flower or your sister flower will be found.

When only three of the eight varieties of flower seeds are on hand, you may not be able to get the flowers you want straight away from the retailer. To your advantage, you can either buy these flower seeds from your friends’ islands (assuming that they have different native and/or sister flowers than you) or from the special guest Leif, who carries seeds that aren’t generally available. On your friends’ islands, you can dig up flowers with their consent if you’ve both registered as Best Friends; you can find out how to do this in our guide.

How To Breed Flowers

Crossbreeding (or simply “breeding”) two different flowers is the primary method of producing new flowers. Some conditions must be met before a flower can breed with another bloom from the same species. Here they are:

  • Next to each other, the flowers are arranged in a row (either directly or diagonally)
  • If they’re sprouting, they’re in full bloom (meaning they will be fully bloomed the next day)
  • They’ve received some moisture (either by any type of watering can or by rain)
  • There’s a void just next to them.

The next day, a fresh blossom may appear on neighboring bare ground if these circumstances are met. Contrary to Animal Crossing: New Leaf, the amount of new flowers that can appear each day is not restricted. Be aware that flower spawning is possible only on dirt and dark dirt routes, but not on any other sort of path that can be laid down using Island Designer.

There is no guarantee that you’ll receive a hybrid flower as a result of “breeding” a flower. For example, if you have two white flowers next to each other, you can get a third white blossom. You can grow more blooms without buying seeds this way, and it’s a necessary step in the quest for certain ultra-rare hybrids.

Cloning

Watering a bloom can also result in the creation of another flower of the same color. In this case, the new flower will have the same “genes” as the old one, which is why it is referred to as “cloning.” You can utilize cloning if you want to swiftly and conveniently increase your hybrids or if you want to use a specific blossom for future breeding. Gold roses, on the other hand, cannot be cloned.

For the quickest and most straightforward cloning, only use blossoms of a different species, or leave nine empty spaces surrounding them. Although flowers can clone themselves as long as they don’t crossbreed with anything else, this is not suggested if you’re trying to clone something specific because it’s difficult to determine if the flowers crossed or just cloned.

Visitor Watering Bonus

Invite your pals to visit your island so they may help you care for your flower gardens. Flowers that have been watered by a visitor have an increased likelihood of producing progeny through breeding or cloning. Asking willing friends to water your flowers can speed up breeding by a factor of five, so if you have friends who are willing to help, this is a great way to get their help in watering your flowers.

How To Get The Golden Watering Can

When it comes to watering your gold roses, you’ll need a specialized tool: a gold watering can. Except when you’re watering black roses, it behaves in the same way as other watering cans (details below). Isabelle’s five-star town review is required to obtain the golden watering can DIY recipe. A five-star island will require a lot of fences, flowers, and furnishings; Isabelle will tell you what you’re missing when she evaluates your island, so be prepared. As soon as you’ve earned all five stars, Isabelle will provide you with instructions on how to make the golden watering can. You can use these instructions at any time as long as you have the necessary materials on hand.

Flower Genes

Flowers in Animal Crossing: New Horizons feature “genes” that determine both their color and the color of their progeny, according to extensive datamining. Only roses have four genes, which is why they’re so difficult to breed. Each species of flower has three genes. There is an advanced guide on flower breeding using data mining called Paleh’s Advanced Flower Genetics Tutorial, however in this guide, we’ll stick to the practical applications of flower breeding.

Flowers in New Horizons are based on Mendelian genetics, which you learn about in biology class. The hue of a flower is determined by a combination of recessive and dominant genes (think of Punnett squares) present in the flower’s DNA. For chain breeding (the process of breeding flowers, then breeding them again to produce a different color), it’s possible that two or more different combinations of genes to result in the same color flower. Even if you buy a seed packet from Leif or Nook’s Cranny, you’ll get the same genetics, which simplifies the process.

As an example, you can cross-breed red pansies with blue pansies to produce even more red pansies. There are several differences between “hybridred” and “seedred” pansies, even though they have many of the same characteristics—the hybrid red pansies are generally referred to as such, while the seedred pansies are referred to as such. Purple pansies can be produced by crossing two hybrid-red pansies, however this cannot be done with seed-red pansies because to the genetic differences. Keep track of the red seeds from seed bags and the blue seeds from cross-breeding if you want to get purple pansies.

Flowers like lilies, cosmos, tulip, and hyacinths, which have simple genotypes and require just little, easy-to-monitor chain breeding, don’t necessitate much attention to genetics. Other flowers, such as roses, necessitate meticulous attention to detail when growing and breeding in order to obtain the most elusive hues. You can clone the most difficult-to-get DNA combinations once you have them, which is where cloning comes into play.

Mystery Island Hybrids

There were previously no hybrid flowers available to you on a deserted island Mystery Tour. As a result of this change, these islands were removed from the Mystery Tour roster and never returned. You can save a lot of time breeding flowers if you got some hybrid flowers from one of these islands, or if you haven’t updated the game to 1.2.0 yet. We’ll put the specifications of these Mystery Island hybrids in this guide for your reference.

These Mystery Tours may yield hybrids that are genetically distinct from those that can be bred from seed on your own island. Keep a record of the bloom you acquire if you manage to get your hands on one of these hybrids, since they can make it easier to chain breed for ultra-rare hues.

Hybrid Flower Breeding Combinations

For every species and color of flower in New Horizons, Paleh’s Advanced Flower Genetics Guide and our own testing have provided the most important breeding combinations. If you’re starting from seeds, we’ve only included the best possible combinations for each hybrid color. Since flower genes work in such a way that additional combinations we haven’t described may make hybrids, this frequently occurs when you have “hybrid” variants of regular hues, such as the hybrid-red pansies in the example.

In the more intricate scenarios where chain breeding is an issue, we’ve stated the proportion of each combination that will generate the hybrid hue, so you know what to expect. (This percentage shows the likelihood that the blooms will reproduce with the specified color/gene combination.) We propose cloning a bloom if you want more of a specific color, rather than trying to breed it with itself.

Seed colors refer to flowers you plant from seed bags purchased from Nook’s Cranny or Leif, while “island colors” refer to hybrids you can only receive from Mystery Tour islands, and “hybrid” or “special” colors refer to specific genetic combinations of flowers when mentioned. Assume that each red, white, and yellow flower on this list is a seed flower unless otherwise stated (and that any simple hybrid colors listed came from those seed combinations). When breeding for consistency, it is essential to begin with seed flowers.

As of the 1.2.0 release, island hybrids are no longer available in-game, but we have included them in this tutorial in case you still have access to a flower from one of these islands or if you haven’t yet downloaded this update.

The most difficult pansy, like hyacinths, is the purple variety, which is extremely rare. The chain, on the other hand, is quite simple. A Mystery Tour island hybrid pansy increases your chances by 25%.

Combinations:

  • orange is a combination of red and yellow
  • White + white = blue
  • combining red and blue results in a new color that is a mix of the two (100 percent )
  • Purple is the result of mixing hybrid red with hybrid red (rare)

Purple pansies go well with the following flowers:

  • Purple is the result of adding island blue.
  • island orange + island orange is purple.
  • Isle of Blue + Isle of Orange = Purple

Roses

In New Horizons, blue roses are the rarest flower in the game, and they are the most intricate. Bear with me as I explain the chain-breeding strategies for getting blue roses. To ensure that the genes are accurate, you should only ever use standard colors (either the seed colors or the hybrids you get from those seed colors). For those who don’t want to cope with the complexities of Paleh’s Advanced Flower Genetics Guide, this material has been simplified.

Combinations:

  • pink is a combination of red and white
  • orange is a combination of red and yellow
  • Red plus red equals black or pink
  • white + white equals purple
  • (100 percent; same genes as seed red + seed yellow) black + seed yellow Equals orange
  • irrigated in gold bucket, the black plant becomes golden.

Method 1 of the blue rose (Mystery Island): Blue rose:

  • island orange x island orange x island orange (rare) OR an island-grown red hybrid
  • Island hybrid red and island hybrid red are equal to the color blue. (a quarter of)

Roses can be easily grown from island hybrid roses, if you’re lucky enough to grow them as your native or sister flower (or if you have a close friend who does).

Method 2 of the blue rose

  • 25 percent of the time, orange and purple will produce a hybrid red (the other 25 percent will be a different color altogether).
  • In this case, the resultant color is blue. One-sixth of one percent

It’s bad since there’s no way to tell if your red roses are the appropriate color. While it is possible to be lucky, it is not very efficient. ) (Note that this hybrid red has different genes than the island hybrid red above, and it’s also distinct from the hybrid red 2 below). Don’t confuse them!)

Recommendation 3 for the blue rose:

  • Purple is the result of mixing seed white and seed white.
  • if seed red and seed red are added together, the result is black
  • combining black with purple results in a unique shade of red.
  • special red and special red
  • In this case, the resultant color is blue. One-sixth of one percent

Using this approach is preferable to option 2 above, which only offers you a 25% chance of receiving the hybrid reds you need to make blue, and there is no way to determine if you actually got them or not. If you can’t get your hands on island orange roses, this will work just fine.

Method 4 of the blue rose (with the greatest likelihood):

A 25% probability of generating blue roses from two hybrid red roses (these are not the same as the hybrid reds before and are designated “Hybrid Red 2” below for clarification) is at the end of this technique. Rather than putting up grids or any other breeding arrangement of three or more flowers, it is recommended that you only breed each of these as a pair.

  • unique white is made up of seed white and seed yellow. 1
  • Purple is the result of mixing seed white and seed white.
  • special purple is the result of combining special white 1 with purple (50 percent )

Only half of the purple offspring will be the correct type at this point. It’s up to you whether or not you want to take a chance and see if these purples are what you’re looking for.

  • A good combination of purple and seed yellow produces white or a hybrid yellow, which is 50/50.
  • Adding seed yellow to purple results in only white.

Before continuing, remove the purple that only produces white roses and check if you can acquire the proper kind of purple by combining this combination several times. Any yellow flowers left over from this phase should be saved for another step in the chain.

  • Clone the one-of-a-kind purple rose to produce a new one that’s genetically identical!
  • white with special purple or hybrid yellow + hybrid yellow
  • Orange is a color created by combining red and yellow seeds.
  • unique orange is a combination of orange and white

For a 6.25 percent chance of producing a bluish-blue rose, you can either stop here and clone the rare orange one or breed them together. Keep going for a 25% chance of a winning combination.

  • Special orange added to hybrid white results in hybrid red number two.
  • Create a new red 2 hybrid clone
  • It’s a 25 percent mix of hybrid red 2 and hybrid red 2!

This is the most time-consuming route, but it has a far higher rate of success. Breeding the orange, special white 1, and purple roses at the same time will speed up the process. Best of luck!

What To Do With Flowers

In New Horizons, flowers serve a multitude of functions. In addition to planting and watering them, you can also harvest them by pressing Y, and unlike previous Animal Crossing games, you won’t lose the plant if you do so, and the flowers will regrow in two days after you harvest them. Flowers may be used to make a variety of wreaths and furniture pieces, and you can even arrange them around your home or island as a decorative accent if you choose. There are so many ways you can accessorize with flowers!

ACNH: Daily activities - what is worth doing? - Animal Crossing New Horizons Guide | gamepressure.com

Plant life on your island, in particular flowers, is critical to the overall balance. They increase your island’s rating (which Isabelle can inform you about), they can attract a variety of bugs, and they’re just plain lovely to look at! If you want to collect butterflies, stinkbugs, mantises, ladybugs, and honeybees, you’ll need at least a few flowers planted around your island. In addition, there are two bugs that appear only if you have a specific color flower.

Bug Name Location Months Time Price

purple or pink blooms can be seen from March to June (N).

From September through December (S) at 4 a.m.

Flowers can also be sold as an additional source of income (either the plant itself or picked flowers). Even if they don’t sell for much, the items you don’t need or want can bring in a little more cash. Roses in gold and blue cost 1,000 bells individually, but you can grow them like a fruit tree on your farm and harvest them like that.

Flowers in Animal Crossing New Horizons explained

Your New Horizons island can be made more cheery with the addition of flowers.
Despite their simplicity, flowers are a vital part of any Animal Crossing game. Your island’s appearance can be improved by planting them, and it can also raise your island’s star level.

It is possible to climb up the cliff on your island and learn that you have a unique type of wildflower growing there when you get a ladder in New Horizons. Eight breeds of dogs can be used for this purpose:

  • Cosmos
  • Hyacinths
  • Lilies
  • Mums
  • Pansies
  • Tulips
  • Roses
  • Windflowers

Flower seeds can be purchased from Timmy in Residential Services and later from Nook’s Cranny, where you can find a wide variety of flowers to plant on your own island.

As simple as sowing seeds and watering them every day until they’re completely developed, it’s easy to grow flowers. If it’s rained recently, you won’t even need to use a watering can for this.

How to get hybrid flowers in Animal Crossing New Horizons

For a truly unique island experience, plant hybrid flowers.
Crossbreeding is a great way to create new hybrid flowers for your island’s landscaping instead of relying on the pre-existing varieties.

Planting parent flowers in a checkerboard pattern is the simplest way to do this. Instead of lining them up in a straight line, this method leaves plenty of room for the development of new hybrid flowers.

To encourage the growth of hybrid flowers, water your flowers every day, either with a watering can or in the rain. Plants can be dug up and moved to a new location once they have grown.

You may grow hybrid flowers in Animal Crossing by following these instructions.

  1. Obtain the seeds from the two parent flowers you’ve chosen, and confirm that they are of the same variety.
  2. A diagonal checkerboard design is the best way to arrange them next to each other.
  3. Make sure to provide them fresh water on a daily basis. If it’s pouring, you can skip this step.
  4. Hybrid flowers will begin to grow as soon as the parents are mature!

A fence surrounding your flowerbeds can help prevent you (or your friends) from tripping over them and destroying your hard work. Fences aren’t just functional; they’re also aesthetically pleasing!

How to get Gold Roses in Animal Crossing New Horizons

Because of their rarity, gold roses are an exceptional gift.
In addition to the aforementioned hybrids, golden roses are also available in New Horizons. It’s a challenge to get your hands on these rare blooms, but they’re a great way to display your gardening prowess.

When Isabelle gives your town a five-star rating, you’ll be given a golden watering can DIY recipe that you may use to make your own. You’ll need to breed red roses with black roses once you’ve made the tool.

If you water your black rose with your gold watering can, you might wake up the next morning with a gold rose to display! You can find a more detailed guide to growing gold roses here.

That’s all there is to know about flower cultivation and cross-pollination in order to create new hybrids. Visit our Animal Crossing: New Horizons main page for more guides.

FAQS:

Why won’t my flowers make hybrids Animal Crossing?

Creating a checkerboard pattern in your flower bed is all it takes to cross-breed your plants. It should be one blossom followed by a space, and so on. The cross-pollination of two blooms of the same species will result in a new color variation. Make sure to water your flowers every day to guarantee that this happens.

How do you tell a hybrid flower in Animal Crossing?

Here they are:

  1. Next to each other, the flowers are arranged in a row (either directly or diagonally)
  2. If they’re sprouting, they’re in full bloom (meaning they will be fully bloomed the next day)
  3. They’ve received some moisture (either by any type of watering can or by rain)
  4. They are surrounded by an empty area.

Conclusion:

It’s always thrilling to start a new Animal Crossing world, but it’s easy to be sidetracked by trying to come up with the right island name before you’ve had a chance to think about terraforming, decorating your house, and meeting your neighbors.

You can use these island names in Animal Crossing New Horizons, and we’ve also included some pointers on how to come up with your own unique ones.
