Popuri (HM64)

Popuri (ポプリ, Popuri) is one of the eligible girls for marriage in Harvest Moon 64.

She is a sunny, upbeat girl who helps her mother and father raise and sell vegetables at their shop, Flower Lillia. Her mother, Lillia, is the local florist, and her father Basil is a traveling botanist.

She loves flowers, especially Pink Cat Mint flowers, and will be overjoyed if the player plants them in the fields. If they choose not to marry Popuri, Ann's brother Gray (who shares her interest in flowers) marries her, and they eventually have a daughter named Mint.

Popuri often journeys to the mountains to pick wild flowers, and has a favorite spot at the very top of the northern peak.

Heart Events
Popuri is Sick
 * On a rainy day, go to the Flower Shop and Popuri will have a cold. She will be happy if the player visits her.

Requirements: Popuri is at a green heart or higher, it must be raining.

Dream Event
 * The player will have a dream (flashback) about a girl falling after trying to pick up a flower. Anywhere from the next day to a week later, go the mountains behind the carpenters' house. It's best to check it every day until the event is triggered.

Requirements: Yellow heart on any kind of day.

Sprained Ankle
 * She sprains her ankle near the cave in the woodland area. If the player helps her, it will increase affection with her. If not, Gray will help her.

Requirements: Yellow heart on a sunny day.

Photo
 * During the Spring, the player will get a letter from Flower Lillia that says the Blue Mist Flowers have arrived. Plant some, and after they bloom, Popuri will come by and the player will get a picture for the album. The seeds/flower must be watered every day for it to bloom.

Requirements: To trigger this event, the player simply needs to water the flower until it blooms. When it does, Popuri will be standing near the flower and say she hopes the butterflies come. The next day, she will be there and there will be a butterfly. Talk to her to get the picture.

If she is at or very close to a pink heart, she will be at the farm the morning the butterfly comes, but a pink heart is not required to get the photo. She can be at any heart level.

Confession
 * Her confession scene is near the cave in the woodland area.

Requirements: Pink heart on a sunny day.

 * When the player walks into the village, Gray will walk out of the flower shop. Popuri will follow him and tell him he forgot his purchase, some flower seeds.

Growing Flowers

Manure


 * Walking into the Green Ranch area at night, Popuri will be standing by the fence. Gray comes out of the barn and Popuri starts talking to him. Gray tells her not to come any closer, he's been carrying horse manure. Popuri tells him she doesn't mind, she works with fertilizer often and it smells the same.
