How to grow and hybridize them - Animal Crossing: New Horizons, growing hybrid and colorful flowers

To start hybridization we will need the watering can, obtainable from the first day by donating 5 insects / fish to Tom Nook or by buying it in the Shop. We will need it to allow the flowers to grow and multiply, a process that would otherwise be slower or only allowed by the rains. There are various types of color obtainable in this way from blue, pink, black and many others. In some cases it is enough to place the flowers next to each other and, receiving water, they will multiply, generating a new flower with a different color in the immediate vicinity.
