'''Bomb Flowers''' can be seen throughout [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. They are [[Bomb]]s that grow in the ground that [[Link]] can pick up and throw or roll to use against enemies. They can be used as simple bombs after being picked, i.e. to blow up blocked passageways or rooms. They are activated once they're picked up, so Link has a limited amount of time before they will explode in his hand. In ''Skyward Sword'', Link has the option of picking up Bomb Flowers and storing them in his [[Bomb Bag]], which he obtains in the [[Earth Temple (Skyward Sword)|Earth Temple]].

Unlike the Super Bomb, it is only necessary to purchase the Bomb Flower once; it will re-grow where Link picks it from, allowing infinite uses. Also unlike the Super Bomb, there are multiple uses for the Bomb Flower in the form of several large, breakable walls that can only be destroyed by detonating the Bomb Flower next to them.

Bomb Flowers are recurring items in The Legend of Zelda series. They are Bombs that grow in the ground that Link can pick up and throw or roll to use against enemies. They can be used as simple bombs after being picked, i.e. to blow up blocked passageways or rooms. They are activated once they're picked up, so Link has a limited amount of time before they will explode in his hand. In Skyward Sword and Tears of the Kingdom, Link has the option of picking up Bomb Flowers and storing them for later use.

In Ocarina of Time, Link can pick up Bomb Flowers to use before he gets the Bomb Bag. As a child, Link must obtain the Goron's Bracelet from Darunia before being able to pick them up. Bomb Flowers can be found in Goron City, Death Mountain and Dodongo's Cavern. In this cavern, there is a very clever puzzle involving bomb flowers.

Oracle of Seasons

In Oracle of Seasons, the Bomb Flower is acquired in Subrosia and is needed to clear the way for the Tower of Autumn. By using the Bomb Flower, it not only gives Link entry to the Autumn Tower (which will give his Rod of Seasons the Power of Autumn) but it also allows him to use the furnaces in order to make Hard Ore using Red Ore and Blue Ore.

Oracle of Ages

Tears of the Kingdom

"A dangerous flower that contains explosive elements. Does not mix well with fire or electricity, unless the goal is to blow things up."

— In-Game Description

In Tears of the Kingdom, Bomb Flowers return and replace the Remote Bomb rune from Breath of the Wild. When collected, they are available in the Materials section of Link's inventory. Unlike previous Bomb Flowers, whose fuse often lights as soon as the flower is picked, the Bomb Flowers must be ignited by an external source.

Bomb Flowers are uncommonly found around Hyrule, bought in some shops, or rarely obtained from chests. They are not found often - and Link needs to use other methods to destroy objects, such as special Arrows or Fused weapons.
