Yes, I also only had time for one set of four seeds. It's very frustrating, especially considering how many variants there are. I had been hoping to get a few more of the newer variants, but I'm guessing that isn't likely to happen.

For newcomers, the problem is far worse. We have nine variants, and only if someone had timed it very tightly would they have had a chance to get more than four seeds total. Even if someone had a chance to get two sets of seeds, at the most they could get eight mushrooms, and they certainly wouldn't have had a chance to get any of the bred-only variants.

The admins have commented that the focus of this game is trading, so people can get all the variants that way. That's a nice concept, but if you keep a flower type rare, people are going to be far more inclined to hoard those plants rather than to either gift or trade them.

Witch mushrooms are already over? Really? They were only available for five days? That seems a bit bizarre, and more than a bit cheap. I am extremely disappointed.

Then... could we have an extension on it next year? In other words, if your intent is to have it last 2-3 weeks, maybe let it last an additional couple of weeks next year? There are a LOT of bunny variants already, and it would give newer members a chance to gather some and then maybe breed a few to attempt to get the bred-only variants.

In the past, we were usually given 2-3 weeks with many holidays, and with holidays that have many types of plants - such as Christmas and Halloween - we were usually given 4-5 weeks. I know you haven't been making the holidays that long, but just a request, could we have a few of them extended, maybe?

I guess we're not going to have the Easter bunny eggs this year?

I hope we do. I'm leaving my seed pots open in anticipation; I hope the event lasts longer than 1 or 2 weeks, so people have a chance to get all of them.

Just a note to newcomers: There is at least one variant - and possibly more - that can only be obtained by breeding bunnies. Some of us breed event plants for the seeds to drop into the garden. If you get one of those, don't discard it simply because it's not parentless; it may be your only shot at getting certain of the rarer variants.

Are we going to have St. Patty's day this year? I know they've been dropping all year, but ironically I think they recently stopped dropping.

I would also like to know if we're going to have Easter eggs drop this year. Since there are so many variants, could we have them go for 2-3 weeks this time? It will make it easier for those who are newer to the game.

They've been dropping all year, for some reason. I'm sure they'll fix that soon, so if you want some of those seeds, you might want to take them now.

Looks like it. Because I was unable to abandon some seeds I had picked up right before the Valentine's seeds were available, I was only able to get four seeds from the garden. I'm a bit bummed about it.

It seems to be now. Thank you!

Oh, then that issue might be what's causing the gift/trash/abandon problem! Yes, I can see how that would be specifically browser related. If Avast browser isn't trying to add the www, and Chrome and Edge are, then those two browsers would have that problem!

Unfortunately, Chrome and Edge are probably the most common browsers out there. Edge because Microsoft (which is why I hate it), and Chrome because developers love it, because it follows the WWW standards most closely. (Or did a dozen years ago, back when I was studying web development.) I only installed Avast on my system for a one-time situation I had where I needed to browse a site incognito (Avast has that ability; most browsers don't), and I've rarely used it since then.

I'm not getting any red message or error message at all. I click "gift" or "trash" or "abandon" on any of my plants, and I just get sent to my center garden page. No error messages or anything else; it simply doesn't work.

I'm not sure how I can send you a gift link that I'm attempting to create, when it doesn't allow me to get to a page that shows a gift link. Since the gift links get generated on the fly, there's no way for me to know what the gift link would be, since I'm not getting it. I think we're communicating at cross-purposes here; you're assuming I can't ACCEPT gift links, but the problem is that I can't CREATE them.

The problem isn't when I click on someone else's gift link; those work fine (although I am not interested in taking them). It's when I try to CREATE a gift link for someone else to take a plant of mine, that's when this problem occurs.

Btw, something that may or may not be related: If you try to go directly to "flowergame.net" or "http://www.flowergame.net", you get a DNS error; at least I do, on all of my browsers. It's like the main site is somehow not connected to anything, nor does the site have a main page. We USED to go to the main wild garden page, where we could select from three seeds and/or create an account. This change may or may not be related to this issue, but it's something to consider.

Keep in mind that if the main site is not navigable, we won't be getting new members, as that's the most likely URL that anyone would try to go to.

For me, it happens with all plants. If an ad blocker is causing it, it's a recent development, and I haven't changed what extensions I have installed. That said, an ad blocker app could have gotten an update I wasn't aware of, which could cause a different effect beyond what it used to.

Nope, just turned all my extensions off; still having that problem. I think I'll keep them all turned off until this problem is sorted, however.

Keep in mind, this isn't an error per se; I just get redirected to the center of my garden whenever I make an attempt to gift, abandon, or trash. I'm not sure why an extension at my end would redirect me to a specific location at your end. Keep in mind that the URL it's directing me to is "https://flowergame.net/garden/1906". It's not the generic "flowergame.net", and it's not a safety page; it's the center of my garden specifically. That means that the redirect is most likely at the server end, I think. Sort of like an "I'm not sure what you're trying to do, so I'm going to send you right here," kind of thing.

It didn't start happening until right after this last server change. I haven't been able to use those links since that occurred.

Edit: I just talked to my friend Zab, who is also on this site. She uses Edge, and hadn't had any extensions installed, and is having this problem. So it's not just Chrome, but I have no idea what commonality the two of us might have.

Ok, so apparently the links don't work when using Chrome, but do work when using a different browser. (For me, it was the Avast browser.)

That doesn't mean that this is not a bug, just that there's a work-around. I had already tried clearing my cache and various other things, and the problem persists so long as I'm using Chrome.

Not only have I not seen any change in the speed of games (faster or slower, I see no difference), but gifting, abandoning, and trashing plants and seeds are all completely broken.

We won't be able to gift on Valentine's day at this point. I do hope that a fix is at least planned on, even if it can't be implemented right away.

When I click the "gift" link on any of my plants, it takes me to the center of my garden, instead of bringing up a gift link page like it should.

Edit: It is impossible for me to abandon or trash plants (or seeds) as well. Every time I click any of my plant links - gift, abandon, or trash - I get sent to the center of my garden. Breeding appears to work correctly; at least, it shows a list of other plants I can breed a plant with; since I haven't actually tried breeding, I don't know whether or not it will produce a seed, so I can't say for certain. But it doesn't take me to the center of my garden, like the other three options do.

This really needs to be looked into. Since we're supposed to gift to someone on Valentine's Day in order to get a gift from the post pixie (assuming you're going to activate that), then at least some of us won't be able to do this.

Thank you for letting us know.

Interestingly, mine shows up in my compendium, but before it was fully grown I did NOT have a question mark.

Yes. Gift a flower (any sort, I think) and get a gift from the post pixie.

What I can't figure out, though, is how to use the new decoration. In fact, the options to decorate my various gardens seem to have disappeared. I can no longer remove or add plants to any of them; being unable to add a plant is unsurprising (my gardens all have full pots), but I don't have the spade to be able to remove a plant from a pot in order to replace it. I also can't remove decorations from my Winter Garden in order to be able to change the decorations out, therefore I can't test to figure out where this new decoration is supposed to go.

Has anyone figured it out yet? I'm thinking maybe Chrome isn't handling the JavaScript correctly or something. But I'd like to know first if anyone else has been successful with it.

Merry Christmas to all!
