You may have visited a friend’s island at some point and seen a mysterious flower. Now I bet you wonder how to get your own Animal Crossing: New Horizons Lily of the Valley. These unusual flowers are the rarest of all Animal Crossing: New Horizons flowers, and cannot actually be grown with traditional media.
What that really means is that you can’t buy lily of the valley seeds from Nook’s Cranny or Leif. Instead, there are two things you need to do to ensure that you start to see Lily of the Valley appear in your Animal Crossing: New Horizons Island.
1. Get a 5-star island rating
The main event that stands between you and getting your own Animal Crossing: New Horizons Lily of the Valley is getting a 5-star island rating. The flowers only bloom spontaneously on islands that Isabelle considers worthy of a five-star evaluation. Maybe she has a little greenhouse of them hidden somewhere …
You can check your island rating by talking to Isabelle at Resident Services, and there are several things you can do to improve your island rating at Animal Crossing: New Horizons. A cheeky checklist below:
- Have lots of outdoor items with lots of variety
- Use fences where possible
- Add bridges and ramps to improve your infrastructure
- Plant flowers and trees
- Eliminate weeds
- Be sure to pick up any items, turnips, or recipes that are on the floor (put them on stands or stands)
2. Wait for your lily of the valley flowers to grow
When you’ve reached the 5-star rating (congratulations! Wow!), You’ll notice that Lily of the Valley flowers will start to appear on your island. For every week of having that five-star rating, you’ll get a new Lily of the Valley on your island.
You can’t pick them up like other flowers, but you can dig them up with your shovel and plant them somewhere else. Selling them to Nook’s nephews will earn you 222 bells per bloom, as the real value of these flowers is the humble boast of having a five-star island.
Look like the complete pig like me and decorate the entrance of your island with them. It’s not smug as long as it’s pretty, is it? RIGHT?
