🌟 Character introduction

🌹 Rose

Rose travels from her mountain cabin to Mulberry Village with her brother Corey the Hat Mouse to open a bakery of her own. However, she didn't expect that some humans would be suspicious of her and her brother. After being kicked out of Pelican Town by Morris, Rose was convinced that she would never be able to make friends with a human. Of course, Alchemist Wildflowers are the exception, right?

She might be a little shy of you at first, but maybe you can prove to her that not all humans are as scary as Maurice?

🧪 wild flowers

An alchemist in search of rare forage, Wildflower established her studio in Mulberry Village after discovering the exotic mushrooms and flowers growing in the Mulberry forests and mountains. One day while gathering in the Ash Forest, she encounters Rose, a frightened vole. After talking, she invited Rose to live with her in Mulberry Village, and the two soon became inseparable friends.

Community is very important to her, so she is always happy to help any villager with her alchemy or gathering knowledge. Can you help the alchemist discover a rare forage she believes is hidden in the mulberry forest?

❓ FAQ

**Game Version Compatibility**

This mod is for SDV 1.6 - not compatible with older versions of the game.

**Multiplayer and mobile support**

Mobile is not tested and I will not provide mobile support for my mod. For multiplayer, if the same mods are installed, multiplayer should be fine, but I can't resolve the multiplayer issue.

**Existing archive used**

This mod is safe to use in existing saves! I recommend starting a new save so the new content doesn't appear all at once in the middle of the game, but you absolutely can if you want and you shouldn't have a problem. Just pretend Rose and the Alchemist just moved in!

**romantic relationship**

Wildflowers and/or roses won't make it romantic. You **cannot** release a mod that makes them romantic.

**How ​​to find/unlock content**

explore. Stay curious. Talk to the Alchemist and the Rose. This is a magic themed mod; I won't reveal all this information.

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)

  1. Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
  2. Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
  3. Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
  4. Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.

Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
