In addition to the native flowers on their island, players can also buy flower seeds at Nook’s Cranny. Once you've upgraded the shop and progressed in the game, you should be able to purchase 3 types of flowers, including your native flower, in white, red, and yellow. You can purchase more types of flower seeds from Leif! Native flowers are the ones that grow naturally on the top of your island's cliffs.

2. Select a Space to Plant Flowers

The planting mechanism of flowers is slightly different from that of trees, they grow only on grass and dirt, and it is unnecessary to consider the density and surrounding space when planting flowers. You can plant them in front of your house, or your neighbors' houses, or you can create a garden of your own!

3. Plant Seeds on the Ground

Stand on the space where you want to plant, and open up your inventory to select the flower seed. Select plant and the flower will be planted at your foot. You can also use your shovel to dig up a spot where you want to plant the flower. For moving the flowers, you should use a shovel to dig out the roots, but you don't need to dig the pits when replant.

4. Wait for them to bloom in 4 days

It takes three days from seed planting to flowering. During this period, you need to water every day to grow. After trampling on a flower, you have to water it for one day to grow new flowers.

Tips: You can only use flimsy watering can to water one grid of flowers. You can use watering can to water the flowers in the front 3×2 grid, and you can use gold watering can water the flowers around the 3×3 grid around itself. The watered flowers will drip, Afterwards it will also sparkle, which can be used to judge whether to water.

Hybrid flowers in ACNH are flowers that are not the same colour as their parent plants. Flower hybridization requires that both parent plants are in the flowering stage, and the first parent flower is within the 3×3 square range of the second parent flower (as shown below). Both parent flowers need watering to hybridize, you don’t need watering in rain and snow.
