Flower farm
The Flower farm is one of the extra farms that you only get later in the game. It focuses on flowers and perfumes and, as one of the few farms, it has a shop of its own where I sell the products from my meadows. Besides meadows and orchards I also build processing buildings on it like the Distillery, the Mixing plant or the Apiary, which turn raw goods into finished wares.
The Flower farm is worth it mainly for its own shop and the wide range of perfumes and essences I can't get anywhere else, but without a well-developed Mixing plant and Distillery I only squeeze a fraction of its potential out of it.
I only unlock the farm once I meet a condition on the main farm
The Flower farm shows up in the farm menu once you reach the required level, or once you buy every single available expansion on the main farm. The mobile version of the game lists a second route to unlocking it – buying 25 expansions on the Gourmet farm. In practice it's enough to check the farm menu next to the village now and then, where the new icon appears as soon as the condition is met.
Unlocking the farm itself then costs 120 000 Dollars and 8 400 Gold. That's a decent sum, so I'd recommend having it ready before you start building, so the farm doesn't end up unlocked but empty.
The new farm brings over fifty buildings of its own
According to the game, the Flower farm has 57 buildings. Alongside ordinary houses and specials like the Farm laboratory or the Nursery, these are mainly the meadows, orchards and processing plants that form the core of production.
| Building | From level | Price of the first level | Max. level |
| Meadow | 38 | 100 000 Dollars | 9 |
| Olive grove | 50 | 150 000 Dollars | 9 |
| Citrus orchard | 61 | 520 000 Dollars | 9 |
| Distillery | 44 | 150 000 Dollars | 10 |
| Mixing plant | 50 | 150 000 Dollars | 7 |
| Apiary | 56 | 240 000 Dollars | 9 |
| Sweet apiary | 56 | 240 000 Dollars | 9 |
| Maritime apiary | 50 | 300 000 Dollars | 9 |
| Farm laboratory | 11 | 100 000 Dollars | 100 |
Besides the plain Citrus orchard there are decorative variants as well – the Decorative, Lively, Charming and Majestic citrus grove, with prices climbing from 650 000 all the way to 1 040 000 Dollars. From level 61 the Versatile fruit plantation and the seasonal Winter fruit plantation are added too.
Goods travel from the meadows through the hives to the distillery
Production on the Flower farm follows a clear logic. Meadows give nectar and super nectar, which feed the bees in the Apiary and the Sweet apiary – and those then produce honey and wax. The Mixing plant turns ordinary fertilizer into liquid fertilizer (and at higher levels into liquid super fertilizer as well), and that's the resource I absolutely need to keep the Olive grove and the Citrus orchard running.
The Distillery then takes goods like flowers (lavender, jasmine, violets) and turns them into essences, perfumes and scented oils. Those intermediate products go on to become finished goods like Flower perfume, Sweet scented oil, Honey cream or a Pack of soaps, which I then sell in my own shop.
- Meadows and orchards – nectar, lavender, jasmine, vanilla, violets, olives, citrus fruits
- Animals – the Apiary and the Sweet apiary give honey and wax
- Mixing plant – liquid fertilizer and liquid super fertilizer for the orchards
- Distillery – essences, perfumes and scented oils from flowers
The range runs to more than a hundred and seventy kinds of goods
The game data lists 177 products in total for the Flower farm, which makes it one of the most varied farms in the game. Alongside the classic flowers–essence–perfume line I also find seasonal fruit here like limes, grapefruits, pineapples, honeydew melons, gooseberries, rose hips, blackberries, cloudberries, elderberries, figs, passion fruit or apricots – each with its own standard seeds, and some of them with „special seeds“ for a bigger yield as well.
On top of that the farm produces side goods like Manure or Seaweed fertilizer that come in handy off the farm too, plus a few unexpected pieces like the Pasta gift basket. That makes it worth dropping by the farm even just for one particular resource I can't get anywhere else.
