Where to find and buy Bomb Flowers to have an explosive time fighting enemies.

Bomb Flowers in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom are small plants that can be thrown or added to arrows and they explode on impact, which makes them a great asset when you're fighting hordes of enemies. However, you will need to track them down in order to use them.

There are multiple plants and fruits in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom that can be used as weapons that have different elemental and explosive effects when hitting their target. Bomb Flowers pack a punch and they can easily one-shot Bokoblins and some Lizalfos.

Without further ado, we're going to show you how to get Bomb Flowers in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

How to use Bomb Flowers in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

Bomb Flowers in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom can be used, as the name suggests, as bombs. You can attach them to the end of arrows, Fuse them to the end of a melee weapon or simply throw them at an enemy. Out of all of these options, we recommend fusing Bomb Flowers to arrows because it allows you to use it at a distance. If you're too close to a Bomb Flower when it hits its target and explodes, it will damage you too.

Of course, you can always Fuse a Bomb Flower to the end of a spear or a long-reach melee weapon too. Hpwever, the most important thing to know is that a Bomb Flower is single use, once it hits its target and explodes you will need to attach another one from your inventory.
