Players should make sure to update their app to v79 or later to see the new Big Flowers properly when they bloom. The Big Flowers will only bloom for around 3 hours.

Walking 10,000 steps for one of the two days of this weekend will reward players with a limited Genitan Flower Badge. On top of this, seedlings in the planter pack will grow at 1.5x speed which increases even further when planting flowers. You need to record these steps over one of two days this weekend, so make sure you get your steps in if you want this new badge.

The weekend is also celebrating Community Day with a limited bundle pack available for purchase in the shop for 980 coins. This bundle is only available until 00:00 in your region on Oct. 15, so make sure you grab it soon if you want it.

Also available is a special Community Day mission ticket. The ticket costs $1.99 and you’ll need to complete its objective of planting 2000 flowers before 00:00 on Oct. 16.

If you do, you’ll be rewarded with 160 gentian petals in three different colors: White, red and blue. The ticket itself will no longer be available for purchase after 23:59 on Oct. 15.
