A flower is a naturally generating plant that spawns in various forms and colors. Bees can collect pollen from a flower and transfer it to their bee hive to turn it into a collectible honeycomb.
Types of flowers[]
There are nine types of flowers that have their own unique color variations: lilies, daisies, hyacinths, daffodils, hibiscuses, roses, tulips, chrysanthemums, and lavenders. The color variations are the colors red, orange, yellow, dark green, light green, cyan, blue, purple, pink, white, mundane (gray), and black. Chrysanthemum and lavender flowers have a "Chrome" variant. Crocuses and the daffodils found on Wizard Island cannot be bred and can only be used for decoration purposes.

(Note: Just because lavender doesn't possess the mundane variant, does not mean breeding combinations can't fail, the flower(s) will just not give an output)
Chrome variant[]
Chrome chrysanthemums and chrome lavenders are a special variant of chrysanthemum and lavender flowers. Their color changes in accordance to the day/night cycle; during the day, they have a purple color to them, and during the night, they have a navy blue color.
Daffodil[]
Aside from the colored variations of daffodils, a non-colored variation of daffodils spawn on Wizard Island.
Crocus[]
Crocuses can naturally spawn on Wizard Island. It can be used for bee pollination.
Legacy flower[]
Legacy flowers and their seeds prior to their removal.
Before the November 20, 2020 update, flowers didn't have a specific type and were simply named "[Color] Flowers" (referred to as a "wild flower" by Cletus). They also were unable to be fertile or infertile and the only color variations at the time were red, yellow, and blue. They behaved similar to crops, meaning that the harvested flower could not be placed and could only be grown by planting a seed.
After the update, all placed flowers were turned into fertile lilies, and flowers in inventories or storage blocks were turned into regular, infertile lilies. Flower seeds were also completely removed from inventories and storage blocks in this update.
At some point, the red and yellow legacy flower models changed to the one daisies use. All three colors of the legacy flowers also received fertile variants.
Obtaining[]
Breaking[]
Flowers can be collected and harvested instantly by picking them up, but can also be broken using an axe or a pickaxe.

Natural generation[]
Some fertile flowers naturally spawn on the player's island, while daffodils and crocuses only naturally generate on Wizard Island.
The flowers that may naturally generate on the player's island are:
- Fertile red, yellow, and blue lilies
- Fertile red and yellow daisies
- Fertile red, yellow, and blue hyacinths
- Fertile light green and blue hibiscuses
- Fertile red and yellow tulips
- Fertile black and red chrysanthemums
- Fertile purple and white lavenders
Excluding mundane flowers, non-fertile flowers of all species and their respective color variants were able to spawn on Butterfly Festival Island as foliage, including ones that can only be bought as a fertile flower and ones that normally spawn as a fertile flower.
Mob drop[]
Fertile red and yellow daisies both have a 1% chance of dropping when killing any type of slime.
Fulco[]
Fertile red and yellow daffodils and fertile red and black chrysanthemums can be bought from Fulco with flower tokens in the Hub.
In the summer, Fulco visits the player's island and has an equal chance of selling either fertile red or blue roses, but not both at once. The roses can be bought for 220 coins each at a limited stock of 2.
In the winter, there is a rare chance for Fulco to visit the player's island. If he does, Fulco sells fertile white roses for 450 coins each at a limited stock of 2.
Like with Cletus, other players can visit each other's island and buy roses from another player's Fulco.

Usage[]
All flowers can be used as decoration and placed on grass, while specific color variants can be used in several crafting recipes in decorative workbenches.
Crafting recipes prioritize the kind of flower the player has the most. For example, if a player has 10 infertile white daisies and 1 fertile white daisy, the infertile version will be used first.
Bees[]
Bees engage in a pollinating behavior with flowers regardless of color or fertility, increasing the honey level in bee hives. Bees do not affect the fertility or breeding rates of a flower. They are, however, required in certain combinations of breeding, as well as increasing the chance of rare flowers in some instances.
Cross-breeding[]
A visual difference between fertile (left) and not fertile flower (right)
The player can cross-breed two flowers of any color of the same species to create a new color variation, with a small chance for the flower to create a fertile flower. To cross-breed, simply place two fertile flowers or one fertile flower and one non-fertile flower next to each other and water the fertile one(s) with a watering can. Fertile flowers have colored particles and are marked as fertile in their icon name.
After around 10 minutes, a new flower will spawn adjacent to a watered flower. Watering flowers multiple times does not increase the yield or rarity of grown flowers, nor does it reset the growth duration.
Sometimes, after breeding flowers, the child (Offspring of the 2 flowers) will breed with a parent, for example, when breeding white and purple lavender, the purple lavender may produce a blue lavender, that may breed with the white lavender that hasn't produced an offspring yet, leading to a possibility of a yellow lavender. (Data that I found while breeding flowers, approx. 1/3 of lavender will show this interesting phenomenon)

Decoration[]
Flowers can be placed in flower pots (crafted in the pottery bench) as decoration or it can be placed around the island.
Breeding combinations[]
This table shows outcome colors for breeding two flowers of the same species. With the exception of lavenders, any flower combination that is not on the chart has a 100% chance of producing a mundane flower.
Note that every breeding combination has exactly a 25.14% chance of producing a mundane flower instead of a colored flower. It is also possible for a fertile flower to breed with newly bred flowers produced by other flowers instead of the desired one and there is also a 6.45% chance for the bred flowers to have another fertile colored flower. Flowers of different species cannot cross-breed to produce a flower.
indicates that a bee must pollinate one or both fertile flowers at least once for the breeding to successfully produce a colored flower. Otherwise, a mundane flower will be produced.

Crafting ingredient[]
Any colored flower can be used to craft colored clay, glass, wool, neon, or solid blocks regardless of their flower type. Mundane flowers cannot be used to craft colored blocks.
Trivia[]
- The in-game loading tips refer to fertile flowers as "source flowers".
- Before breeding became possible, flowers could not be placed.
- If a player were to pick up a flower while it was breeding, it would become unwatered and not breed until watered again.
- Only infertile flowers used to be able to be used to craft dyed blocks. This was later changed to make it easier for players to complete Fulco's quests and both fertile and regular flowers can be used to make dyed blocks now.
- The elephant banner and the lunar banner are the only items that can be crafted using mundane flowers.
- Although unobtainable, fertile mundane flowers show up in the crafting recipe for the two banners.
- Prior March 6, 2022, tulips were composed of solid elements that could collide with players. Since the update, tulips became non-solid like the other species of flowers.
- Daffodils and tulips have the exact same color variations and all but one breeding combination, with the only difference being that red and light green tulips cannot be bred for yellow ones.
- Roses have the least number of variants.
- Lavenders have the most number of variants, having all colors but mundane.
- Tulips are the tallest flowers.
- Hibiscuses are the shortest flowers.
- Roses are the only species of flowers that do not require bees for any breeding combination.
- Other than mundane, the most common flower color is red. Chrome is the least common color.
- The fertile light green chrysanthemum is the second longest item name in Islands, the longest being the fish tank treasure chest blueprint.
- Walking with a chrome flower in the Void Isles will cause it to constantly change color from black to purple due to the island's lighting.
- As mundane lavenders cannot be bred from any breeding combination, it is the only flower type whose mundane variant is unobtainable.
- Daffodils used to have no mundane variant.
- The daffodil that spawns on Wizard Island may have been an early version of the daffodils that you buy from Fulco.
