Hibiscus

All primary hibiscus colors in a patch in Seaside Resort.

The hibiscus is a type of flower and is the wildflower in Seaside Resort. Completing the "Beach Blossoms" quest while Lou is a moved-in resident unlocks the Resort's flower plots. Wild Seeds planted in Resort plots become a hibiscus.

Its default color is hot pink. Other colors can be obtained through crossbreeding. When fertilized, it can gain an ombré pattern.

One Hibiscus is required for Poco, who is an Island Visitor.

Colors

Like other flowers, it is possible for hibiscuses to gain all flower colors through breeding. Refer to the "Crossbreeding" guide on the Flowers page for full details.

For colors that require color transfer only, the player should crossbreed any color of hibiscus 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 hibiscuss.
