Useful Tip for Flower Gatherers/Breeders

[Wing]

Instead of waiting for flowers to arrive at the shop, go to the island and sign up for a tour.
I like to go on Hide-and-Seek Beginner's Tour, because it's so easy that you can get 7 medals while running around collecting flowers.
After collecting the flowers, it remains in your inventory, which you can then put into the box to bring to your village!
Basically, this saves time for you to wait, and has a never-ending supply.
Technically, you can't call it cheating

TL;DR: Steal flowers from tours

yes!! sometimes you need to get 'fresh flowers'

I was trying to breed black roses for a long time but I kept getting pink ones
I got some red roses from the island & then got the black roses the next day

the roses I was using spawned from pink ones & the game keeps track of flower heritage
never knew this til someone pointed it out to me!

I know about this but I've been slacking on it lately. Someday I'll do this.
