Bowblossom
The Bowblossom is a type of flower and is the event flower for Hello Kitty's 50th Anniversary. Because it is an event flower, it was originally only obtainable by playing during
Hello Kitty's 50th Anniversary. While the event will not return as
Hello Kitty's 50th Anniversary, the event will return in some form. The description of the Bowblossom refers to the event as Hello Kitty's Anniversary Gala.
During their event, Bowblossoms have a random chance at appearing in empty flower plots in Merry Meadow and
Seaside Resort every day at reset. Bowblossoms will not appear randomly in any other region besides
Merry Meadow and
Seaside Resort. However, they can be planted by the player in any compatible region and can breed in any compatible region during the event.
The Bowblossom's default colors are █ warm pink, █ seafoam, and █ lilac. Other colors can be obtained through crossbreeding only during Hello Kitty's 50th Anniversary or in the Greenhouse. When fertilized, Bowblossoms have a chance at gaining a
iridescent effect by default, even outside of the event period. If a flower has an
iridescent effect, it cannot have a separate secondary color.

Event Flower Exceptions
New Bowblossoms can spawn only during the Hello Kitty's 50th Anniversary event or if inside the
Greenhouse. Bowblossoms must be able to spawn in order to obtain new colors and non-default patterns.
Bowblossoms can gain their default pattern in any location at any time of the year through fertilization. Also, patterned Bowblossoms are able to transfer their color or their pattern out to other flower types at any time of the year, in line with the normal color and pattern transfer rules, even if not in the Greenhouse.
As an event flower, the Bowblossom does not have seed packets. Only grown plants or older can be successfully moved with the Trowel. Plants at the seed and sprout stages give a warning if an attempt to trowel them is made, and the seed or sprout disappears if the player chooses to continue. Plucked flowers cannot be used to make new seeds at the
Seed Dispenser. Instead, they may be used only for decoration, crafting, or composting.
Colors
Like other flowers, it is possible for Bowblossoms to gain all flower colors through breeding, but only during the Hello Kitty's 50th Anniversary or in the Greenhouse. Refer to the "Crossbreeding" guide on the Flowers page for more details.
For colors that require color transfer only, the player should crossbreed any color of Bowblossom with a patterned flower from another type. The flower should have the desired color as its primary color, not its pattern color. For example, a red & white ombre dandelily can possibly transfer its red color when crossbred with Bowblossom. Again, this only works during
Hello Kitty's 50th Anniversary (anywhere) or in the Greenhouse (at any time of year).
Patterns
The following are what white and the default colors - warm pink, seafoam, and lilac - look like with their default pattern, the iridescent effect. The default pattern has a 1% chance of appearing with each application of Fertilizer to a non-patterned flower.
The following are examples of what the Bowblossom looks like with a transferred pattern.
