We have added a full point regarding the possibility of greatly boosting the chances of your flowers blooming by watering them with your friends.
How the proliferation process works
At each change of day, the game will review all of your flowers that have been watered. Around each of them, he will look in a 3×3 square (in which the checked flower would be in the center) if another plant of the same species has been planted and watered.
If this is the case, you will have a percentage chance of growing a flower in an empty box around the flower that it initially looked at which will be of the same species and whose color will depend on the two flowers chosen (left image ). The color can either be the same as one of the two chosen or a combination of these. Practical case: the game reviews one of your red tulips freshly watered during the day (middle image). In a 3×3 square around it, he finds a white tulip having also been watered (image on the right):
The game will validate the conditions for awarding proliferation / crossing. Among the remaining boxes available around your red tulip, you will have a percentage chance of showing a tulip shoot (image on the right). This tulip can be white, red or a combination of two colors: pink. In the latter case, you will have successfully created a hybrid flower!
Improved chances of proliferation
By following the instructions in the previous paragraph to the letter, you will have 5% chance to make a new flower appear the next morning. There is, however, a trick to help you boost these chances up to 80%.
Indeed, if friends visiting your island water your flowers, to each additional person, the chances of producing a new flower the next day will be improved as following :
| Number of waterings | Percentage chance of proliferation |
|---|---|
| Player watering or via rain | 5% |
| Watering by 1 visitor | 25% |
| Watering by 2 visitors | 35% |
| Watering by 3 visitors | 50% |
| Watering by 4 visitors | 65% |
| Watering by 5 or more visitors | 80% |
When your plants have been watered by at least five different people, the stars that shine on them will change colors and shapes. This will ensure that you have reached the maximum chances of proliferation.
| Flower watered by less than 4 people | Flower watered by at least 5 people |
|---|---|
By following this tip, we had the pleasure of discovering, the next day, 23 new shoots in our field prepared for the occasion.
Note that if you change the time on your console to go back (even without changing the day), this will cancel the watering that your flowers will have received during the day. Also, this method will not boost your chances of seeing more hybrid flowers appear.
Spawn of rare insects
Last point, it is important to note that having flowers in number on your island will have the effect of attracting more or less rare insects on them. Enough to fill your flower beds with life and your bell pockets! The butterfly in our image below sells 2,500 bells indeed and our flower garden spawns several per minute. The number of bells for resale quickly becomes very interesting.
Hybridization of rare flowers
We now have a full list of hybrid flowers in the game! What colors of flowers will you need to create the flower of the color of your choice? Our tables summarize all the existing combinations in the game and their results.
