They appear on the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Map|map screen]] with circles around them with a radius of 40 meters. If a player is [[flower planting|planting flowers]] within the Big Flower's radius, it will contribute towards blooming the Big Flower. After 300 flowers are planted in the radius, the flower will bloom and reward players who plant flowers nearby with an [[expedition]] to collect a [[fruit]] from it. (If a player has not yet unlocked the ability to do expeditions, they will not get a reward from a Big Flower.) Any player that walks within 100 meters of a blooming Big Flower can swipe vertically across it while viewing its information page to gain 1-2 nectar, even if they have already retrieved the fruit. The nectar provided by the Big Flower depends on the type of flowers that were planted in the radius. | ||
There are some flowers on the map that look like Big Flowers but have a rainbow bud. These are a different kind of flower, called a [[Special Spot]]. | There are some flowers on the map that look like Big Flowers but have a rainbow bud.

When a Big Flower blooms, the type of flower it becomes depends on the flowers planted inside its radius. The color of the flower (and therefore the type of fruit it provides) depends on the color of the planted flowers, and the species of the flower (and therefore the species of nectar the fruit provides) depends on the species of the planted flowers. | |||
===Color=== | ===Color=== | ||
A Big Flower's eventual bloomed color is determined by the color of the flowers that players plant within, with additional complexity added by white flowers | A Big Flower's eventual bloomed color is determined by the color of the flowers that players plant within, with additional complexity added by white flowers. For red, blue, and yellow flowers, having a majority of that color of flower planted within the radius will cause the Big Flower to grow into that color. For a Big Flower to grow into a white flower, at least 70% of the flowers in the radius need to be either white, or another color that is not the most prevalent non-white color, and when the 300 flower goal is reached, the color of the Big Flower will still be randomly picked. When this occurs the flower species is first determined, and then the color is picked based on odds unique to the species. | ||
The likely eventual color and type of a Big Flower is displayed in the screen that appears when an unbloomed Big Flower is tapped. The color displayed does not guarantee that it will be the final color of the Big Flower, because it could still change as more flowers are planted. The colors "red", "blue", and "yellow" will display in this message if that color of flower is the most common non-white color within the radius, and if the 70% rule for white flowers has not been reached. The color "white" is never displayed here, as if the 70% rule has been reached, the color will be displayed as "???" instead. For example, if there are 40 white flowers and 30 red flowers within a Big Flower's radius, the Big Flower will say it will be red, because there are less than 70% white and non-red flowers. If an additional 20 yellow and 20 blue flowers were planted within, they would contribute to white as there are less common than red flowers, and the Big Flower would display "???" as its eventual color. | |||
=== | ===Species=== | ||
There are 2 main categories of flower types: regular flowers (from standard petals), and rare flowers (such as pansies, camellias, and roses). If only regular flowers are planted within the radius, the Big Flower will likely be some color of regular flower, with a chance of being a rare flower. If mostly rare flowers are planted within the radius, the Big Flower will most likely be the most common type of rare flower, though with some additional complexity and randomness. The chances of different flower species blooming has varied throughout the game's lifespan, and [[event]]s have frequently added temporary boosts to certain probabilities. | |||

On {{date|1|January|2022}}, camellias were introduced, and these joined poinsettias as rare flowers that had a low chance of blooming when regular flowers were planted. After the Community Day on {{date|22|January}}, poinsettias were no longer available this way. On {{date|11|February}}, plum blossom flowers were introduced, and now, planting regular flowers had a chance of blooming pansies, poinsettias, camellias, or plum blossoms.

The second tier of flower rarity was removed, and now roses are treated the same way as other rare flowers. Community Days continue to change the flower availability for that day only.

*The places where Big Flowers appear on the map are taken from Wayspots in Niantic's Wayfarer system. This means that they will frequently appear at the same locations as features in other Niantic games, including [[bulbapedia:PokéStop|PokéStops]] and [[bulbapedia:Gym#In Pok.C3.A9mon GO|Gyms]] in ''[[bulbapedia:Pokémon GO|Pokémon GO]]'', and Portals in ''Ingress''. | *The places where Big Flowers appear on the map are taken from Wayspots in Niantic's Wayfarer system.
