Buy Windflower Seeds

You can buy windflower seeds from Nook's Cranny or from Leif's Garden Shop. One bag of windflower seeds costs 240 bells while five bags cost 1200 bells.

This is by far the most recommended method to get Windflowers, as getting them any other way requires a bit of luck.

Use Windflowers for Flower Breeding

For the rare colors like blue windflowers and purple windflowers, you need to breed the normal colors and work towards the flower that you want, as these don't grow in the wild.

Find them on Your Island

Orange, red, and white windflowers may grow on your island if your birthday is between December 1st and May 31st. The wild windflowers will grow on top of the cliffs on your island, so you need access to those first.

Use a Ladder to Get the Flowers

To access the Windflowers on your cliffs, make and use a Ladder through DIY.

How to Climb Cliffs

Get them from Mystery Tours

If windflowers are not growing natively on your island, there is a chance they might grow on Mystery Islands. Note that Mystery Islands can only ever give you one other type of flower, so you're not guaranteed to find windflowers on them.

Trade Online

Hybrid Windflowers

Blue Windflower	Orange Windflower	Pink Windflower

Other Windflower colors can be produced through windflower flower breeding, or be found on a Mystery Tour. The island with hybrid flowers is very rare, however, so we recommend breeding them yourself or trading online!
