I've been trying to cross-breed purple mums to get the green mums but I'm not having any luck?? Is there a special trick to get them? Or do I need purple mums from somewhere else to get them??
Atm I have like 50 purple mums and not a single green has popped up. Just more purples.
Can someone give me some help? :c
 
I just read this guide, and realized purples that come from white seeds do not actually breed greens. Maybe that came from people who were breeding from mums that came from hybrid islands? Anyway, it looks like you need to go through yellows. And here I was thinking the yellows were totally useless!
 
I wasn't aware?? Every article or guide I seen said you can just get them from purples but if this is the case then thanks! I will try again. Dx
I guess I'll just sell my mums.
 
So when I bred purple mums I had a field of 200+ that wouldn't make a single green mum, they were bred the standard way. My friend got a few purple mums from the rare hybrid island and got green mums left and right. I have heard similar tales for purple windflowers and purple hyacinths.

Thank you! I was afraid of that. I haven't been lucky enough to find a hybrid island yet and my island flower is cosmos so I'm gonna assume ima need to trade for those hybrid ones. :(
I bought seeds and tried to make them but its probably not gonna work unless I make them from yellows like the previous commenter said. Dx
Thank you everyone!

I noticed something like this as well.
In my town with native tulips, hybrid tulips from the islands produced purples straight away.
Same for my island with native windflowers.

On my island with native tulips, I was unable to breed and purple windflower and vice versa.
For reference, the tulips I tried breeding on my windflower island are from mystery islands as well! Still no purple.

I feel like this has a lot to do with your native flower, but I did not do any extensive testing or anything!

the only two flowers that appear on islands are the native flower and one other random flower, the same goes for fruit. Only two types and they are locked to the possible islands. But now that we know the specific hybrid requirements now we can produce the other rare flowers, I like how they have made the new flowers like blue roses, it gives them that special rarity that I love in a flower (it's why I loved blue roses in past games and it's why I love green mums now)

This is how I managed to accidentally breed green without having any purples! I was completely baffled when a green mum showed up, didn't even know they were in the game at that point lol

Yup, and you will always have your native flower and sister flower in the shop!
It is really fun when you get a rare flower, I just seem to have more luck with my native flowers when it comes to hybrids.

actually, shop can have all flower types. I do allot of time travelling and have seen them all, in spring all I could get was windflowers and tulips but right now im in summer and I have lillies added to the mix. You have to upgrade nooks cranny to get more flower types ^-^ In fall I also saw allot of hyacinths and roses.
 
Thank you so much! I have about 8 and love how they blend in with trees to make a forest-y vibe so I want to pass produce. :)

Ooh! You can plant saplings by large trees and they never grow or die either so they make great "weeds" for forest like areas :3
 
@MapleCake - i have 2 green mums you can have for free! alternatively i also have some purple mums that came from hybrid islands
 
To get green mums you first breed red and yellow to get hybrid yellows, the hybrid yellows can make purples that make green mum’s or green mums by themselves.
