Animal Crossing: Cherry Blossom Season Is Back, New Seasonal Items Available

Cherry blossoms are once again in bloom in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Until April 10, cherry-blossom petals will appear around Northern Hemisphere islands, giving you another chance to learn and craft cherry blossom DIY recipes. On top of that, a new slate of seasonal items are also available to order from Nook Shopping for a limited time.

Throughout cherry blossom season, you'll be able to find cherry-blossom petals gently wafting in the breeze around your island. Catch these petals with your net and you can to use them to craft certain DIY recipes. There are 14 recipes to craft in total. If you missed out on any of these from last year, you'll have another chance to learn them until cherry blossom season ends.

The Able Sisters' shop is also selling prom-themed clothing this month, while Nook's Cranny had a few brand-new Bunny Day items in stock. Bunny Day has now ended, so those items are no longer available, but another event is just around the corner. The Fishing Tourney returns this Saturday, April 10.

The new seasonal items were added as part of New Horizons' 1.9.0 update, which also introduced Sanrio-inspired villagers and items. These are tied to the recently released Animal Crossing Sanrio Amiibo cards, but those sold out almost immediately at stores. Nintendo also recently rolled out an update for the NookLink companion service that introduced Nook Points. You'll receive points for checking the app daily, and they can be redeemed for exclusive in-game items.
