Growing a full set of Animal Crossing New Horizons flower hybrids takes a little bit of luck with a dash of hard work. But, before you know it, you'll have a wonderful selection of unique colorful flowers to gaze upon across your island.

There's so many variations, it might feel overwhelming at first. Fortunately, as long as you plant your flowers carefully and water and tend to them daily, you'll be able to breed and enjoy all the hybrid flowers in Animal Crossing New Horizons. And it's totally worth the grind, as you can customize your island and then brag about it to anyone who comes to visit.

Below, we've got all the details on the Animal Crossing New Horizons flower hybrids that you can unlock from how to create them to the best planting practices to follow for success. There are also new breeds that haven't featured in the series before too, so it makes the process even more exciting for players old and new to discover.

How to get all Animal Crossing New Horizons flowers

Like with the Animal Crossing: New Horizons fruit, you will have a certain number of flowers native to your island. On mine, for example, I grew pansies, hyacinths and windflowers natively, but had to travel to friends' islands to gather the rest. You can get lucky using Nook Miles Tickets trips, but I've not had any luck with that despite all the money I've spent on tickets.

Here's the full list of Animal Crossing: New Horizons flowers available:

How to create Animal Crossing New Horizons hybrid flowers

Watering flowers in Animal Crossing New Horizons

Just as with previous Animal Crossing games, you can crossbreed your blooms to get hybrid flowers in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. These provide unique colour variations that can't be bought or found growing naturally. You're basically about to become a flower scientist. 

To create flower hybrids in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, you'll need to plant your flowers in a checkerboard pattern on your island. This will give them space to cross-pollinate and do some flower breeding, with the hybrid flowers growing in the gaps.

You'll need to make sure your flowers are watered each day - either by you with your watering can, or the rain. You'll know which flowers have been watered by their sparkle. 

It's worth noting that I stumbled across this amazing piece of knowledge on Reddit, that suggested that if your friends come over and water your flowers for you, the higher the probability of hybrid flowers forming. Take a look:

I'm also finding that if I also water flowers even if it's raining, they also sparkle more, so although it might feel silly, it will help your hybrid production.

Sam Loveridge is the Brand Director and former Global Editor-in-Chief of GamesRadar. She joined the team in August 2017. Sam came to GamesRadar after working at TrustedReviews, Digital Spy, and Fandom, following the completion of an MA in Journalism. In her time, she's also had appearances on The Guardian, BBC, and more. Her experience has seen her cover console and PC games, along with gaming hardware, for a decade, and for GamesRadar, she's in charge of the site's overall direction, managing the team, and making sure it's the best it can be.

She plays across all platforms, and specializes in titles like Pokemon, Assassin's Creed, The Sims, and more. Basically, she loves all games that aren't sports or fighting titles! In her spare time, Sam likes to live like Stardew Valley by cooking and baking, growing vegetables, and enjoying life in the countryside.
