Steps to get Lily of the Valley in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

There is not much that players can do to get Lily of the Valley, which is partially what makes the flower so unique. The only thing they can do is get a five-star rating for their island from Isabelle.

There are now many things that can be done to achieve a five-star rating:

• Keep a variety of outdoor items in the island
• Get rid of weeds
• Enhance the island's infrastructure by adding fences, bridges, and ramps
• Increase the greenery in the island by planting more trees and flowers

Once players achieve a five-star rating, they will begin seeing Lily of the Valley blooming on their islands.

Coming to the utility of these flowers, there's really not much that players can do about them. These flowers cannot be plucked like most others in the game. However, players can dig them up and plant them elsewhere, and newer flowers will then bloom in these emptied spaces. Additionally, they can also sell these flowers for the price of 222 Bells.

However, not more than one Lily of the Valley can bloom every day. Furthermore, these flowers will only continue to bloom as long as players hold a five-star rating for their islands. Apart from this, there's not much they can do to ensure a healthy amount of Lilies of the Valley on their Animal Crossing: New Horizons islands.
