Hybrid Flowers Guide

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, you will have a native flower to your island located on the cliffs. You can purchase these flowers from the shop, and more types of flowers will become available after building Nook’s Cranny. Traveling to other islands can help you expand your flower selection.

You can also crossbreed and grow hybrid flower colors in this game. If you want to do this, make sure your flowers are planted in a checkerboard pattern like in the image below. You will then need to water the flowers to grow them and create hybrids.

To pick flowers, you can go up to them and press Y and the stems will regrow new flowers. Various flowers can be used in different recipes.

We compiled a list of every different hybrid flower combination in Animal Crossing New Horizons. Bookmark this page and refer to the guide to learn how to make any flower color on your own island.
