Is it a baked potato, or possibly a hot potato? Because if it's the latter, the act of gifting might be a key element. Not sure.

Augh, I've been waiting for the event to begin all week, and didn't even realize until now that it already had. *facepalm*

Hopefully it'll last a while.

I doubt I can ever repeat this, but I'm very thrilled to have made it:

And that is a gorgeous little bunny, Shelybear!

Sorry, I didn't see this until now. Well, sometimes I will let my own garden go for a couple of days and that is all it takes for the seeds/seedlings to lose all their water. So, yes, we would probably want to wait a little while longer. After all, some people might not like it if other people clicked their garden. We wouldn't want to infringe on anyone. So, hopefully all the gardens we have posted have truly been deserted.

Maybe we should have a minimum time before we can post a garden in Garden Helpers? Like, the posted plants have to have gone a minimum of 1 month since their last status change (taken into greenhouse/began to sprout) before they can be posted? With the exception, of course, for people who request garden-sitting while they're away.

Four more!

Four more! Wow, this is turning into a nice, large sample.

It might also have auto-dropped, because her pots were full. Towards the ends of holidays, sometimes some of us breed all of our holiday plants when we have full pots, to let the seeds drop into the wild. That may be what she had done, although if she bred them a little too late, it wouldn't have been an HoV seed.

I don't think so... I bred a lot of plants during the Christmas period that auto-dropped, and my name isn't on any of them. Only ones that went into my greenhouse and were then manually abandoned have my name on them.

First round for me:

Maybe you bred it at the end of the Valentines breeding season, and released it into the Wild Garden when it turned out to be a Bleeding Heart rather than a Heart of Valentine? That would appear to fit the time frame when it says you first took it.

I'm curious as to whether anybody has been able to produce bred versions of the original brown or grey bunnies (These two: and ). I haven't been able to breed either, and I've been trying since the beginning. All of my bred bunnies have grown up as the other four varieties. Has anyone raised or seen a bred version of either of these?

I didn't see any when I peeked, but breeding is still enabled, so there may be more dropping into the Wild Garden soon. Sometimes it just runs out for a little bit.

I finally found egg #15 (or so the counter tells me, but idk), and no third package or anything, but then I've done this event every year already. It took DAYS for that egg to finally appear. :-/

The trick is in the plant's numbers (and ages). When two plants are bred together, the lower numbered plant will always be on the left in the resulting seed/plant's lineage. So if you breed plants #12 and #8, and get plant #150, you will have #8 to the left of #12 on the lineage. Now, things can get tricky because if you breed #150 with plant #103, whose parents are #27 and #32, you will have #103 to the left of #150, which means that on the row below them, the plants will be ordered as #27, #32, #8, #12, even though #27 and #32 are obviously larger numbers.

That's what can make it confusing at times if you're trying to do symmetries and patterns, because (unlike, say, Dragon Cave) the plants don't have "male" and "female" identities or positions on their family trees, and are instead arranged by which plant is younger and which is older. So if you have a marvel fern whose parents are arranged with the male fern on the left and the marvel on the right, and you mate it with a male fern whose parents are arranged the same way, you might not get the pattern you expected and wanted if that male fern mate is actually older than your marvel fern. (And that's why, whenever I can, I like to mate two plants of the same variation to each other. Then it doesn't matter which one is older. )

I am just... SO happy with how this little one's lineage turned out:

Looks like it's all over at this point... which means it's time to start preparing for Valentine's Day, right?

Well, it can't be that, because the reward never appears. I literally finished the game and immediately got a screen telling me that the link was expired. I played the game for no more than two minutes, won, and got the expiration screen.

Just as an update, the link expiration thing just happened to me, too. I was playing the memory game and got through it pretty quickly, so I don't think it can be a matter of taking too long. The next game was fine, though.
