Okay, so, I’ve been trying to get these red windflowers in Animal Crossing, and let me tell you, it’s been a journey. I started with nothing but a dream and a few basic flower seeds from Nook’s Cranny. You know, the usual red, white, and yellow ones.
First, I planted a bunch of red and white windflowers near each other, hoping they’d, you know, do their thing and make some pink ones. It’s like the most basic flower breeding move in the game. After a few days of watering them like crazy and waiting, boom, I got my first pink windflower! I was pretty stoked. I felt like a gardening genius, a true botanical master.

Then, I took those pink windflowers and planted them next to some other red ones. I read somewhere online that this could maybe make more pinks or even some blue ones. And guess what? It totally worked! I ended up with a few more pinks and my very first blue windflower! I was on cloud nine. I moved those precious blue windflowers to their own little special area so they wouldn’t get mixed up. I’m treating them like royalty.
Trying for Reds
Now, here’s where it got tricky. The real goal was those elusive red windflowers. I had to get some orange windflowers first, and for that, I needed to cross red and yellow ones. Easy peasy, right? I planted a field of red and yellow windflowers, watered them every day, and waited. And waited. And waited some more. It felt like forever!
Finally, I spotted my first orange windflower! It was like finding a little treasure. I carefully dug it up and moved it to a new spot where I was going to start my red windflower project. The plan was to breed these new orange ones with the blue ones I got earlier. The internet said this was the way. It was supposed to be a sure thing. Well, not so much.
I put the orange and blue windflowers together and started the waiting game again. Days turned into weeks, and I was starting to lose hope. I was watering them religiously, checking every day, but nothing. Nada. Zip. Just a bunch of orange and blue windflowers staring back at me. It felt like they were mocking me.
Success at Last!
But then, one glorious morning, I saw it. A beautiful, vibrant red windflower! It finally happened! I couldn’t believe my eyes. It was like all that hard work and patience finally paid off. I immediately dug it up and gave it a place of honor in my garden. My friends didn’t believe me at first, so I had to send them a screenshot.

So yeah, that’s my story of how I finally got those red windflowers in Animal Crossing. It took a lot of time, a lot of watering, and a whole lot of patience, but it was totally worth it. If you’re trying to get them too, don’t give up! Just keep at it, and eventually, you’ll get there. It’s a grind, but hey, that’s part of the fun, right?
