The Sunsweet Flower is a special red flower that only appears in Autumn. It plays a crucial role in the town’s traditions and is a necessary prerequisite for dating and marriage. You must complete a special event to unlock the ability to purchase its seeds.

The Preserved Flower Event

To unlock Sunsweet Flower seeds, you must first trigger the “Preserved Flower” event. This event is a requirement for dating any of the marriage candidates. It will trigger when you exit your farmhouse if the following conditions are met:

  1. It is Autumn 1st of your first year, OR you have seen a marriage candidate’s blue heart event.
  2. The time is between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM.
  3. The day is not Sunday or Tuesday.

During the event, Jeff and Basil will explain the legend of the Sunsweet Flower, and the Nature Sprites will help you find one.

After you complete the event, Jeff will begin selling Sunsweet Flower seeds at the General Store. This event also unlocks the Preserved Flower, an item you need to buy to ask a candidate to start dating you.
