Flowers

"Just like in real life, bees in APICO love flowers!"

In the game you come across over 13 different species of flowers - some naturally found in different Biomes, others can only be found by Cross-Pollination through active beehives. While the first flowers you find don't have any special uses, later flowers have their own special effects like keeping bees up late at night or acting as Trait buffs!

Each flower is split between 3 "Tiers" to help categorise them.

If you are looking for Apicola production efficiency, to speed up your Cross-Breeding or rehabilitation efforts, here's a few sets for these situations. Remember that Traits cannot be increased or lowered beyond the maximum or minimum values and that working Bees will be buffed by all the flowers in their radius - set up the environment carefully!
