The distribution of flowers grown in each biome is not random; there is a set number of each type that will grow. Therefore, if you wish to collect a certain type of flower, you only need to pick that flower type in order for more of that type to spawn.

Flowers begin to respawn in a biome about 15 minutes after being collected, but can take up to 2 hours to fully repopulate.
===Flower Spawning===
After collecting all flowers of a type & color in a biome it can take up to two hours for them to fully respawn. The internal respawn timer for each type of flower is determined by its rarity - with the rarest (2 per biome) on a 1 hour timer and the most common (6 per biome) on a 20 minute timer.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/c/MintyPlush MintyPlush] - Advanced Flowers Guide - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkBg6ImIlfU</ref>

The internal timer which triggers respawns is always running in the game background - it checks if there’s an available space and availability for a flower to spawn, if there’s room a single flower will spawn, then (regardless of spawning) the timer restarts. Respawn time isn’t influenced by when the flower is picked - a flower can respawn immediately if the internal timer lines up just after it’s collected. Because of this mechanic the respawn timer for the first flower picked will be a range - e.g. a flower on a 20 minute timer can respawn between 0-20 minutes - but each flower after that can be timed exactly by referencing the first flower's spawn time.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/c/MintyPlush MintyPlush] - Advanced Foraging Guide - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTVLDx_l6L0</ref>
; Examples:
*Player collects 4 of a 30 minute flower type. If respawn 1 happens at '''12:36''', respawn 2 will happen at exactly '''42:36''', respawn 3 at '''1:12:36''', and respawn 4 at '''1:42:36'''.
*Player collects 2 of a 60 minute flower type. If respawn 1 happens at '''45:16''', respawn 2 will happen at exactly '''1:45:16'''.
The sum of timers to fully respawn all flowers of a type & color is a maximum of two hours.
Respawn timers in a newly unlocked biome may not work correctly until the entire biome has been cleared of the flowers & foraging materials. Biomes can have non-native flowers and materials when first unlocked, and these must first be removed for the native plants to properly spawn in using the game's internal timer.
