In Depth Quest Guide
This is a full walk through for the quest, so if you're confused by any of the quick steps, hopefully these can help you out.
Head over to Rosetta's Garden in Cherryblossom Heights and ask her if she has any quests. If you have finished the quest Water Tests, the quest should pop up immediately and you'll be able to begin. Upon starting the quest, Rosetta will greet you:
Rosetta: "Greetings, sugar! Have you come to smell my beautiful new hibiscus flowers? Well, guess what - hibiscus flowers have no scent!"
"Hee hee, gotcha, didn't I? Say, what's that pink thing you have? Oh, it's one of Iridessa's discoveries? What does it do?"
"It might have a secret garden power? Well, let's get flapping and find out what it is! You're gonna help me, aren't ya, sugar?"
Step 1
Accept this Quest?Accept the quest and Rosetta is thrilled and gives you the first step.
Rosetta: "Plant-tastic! And I know just what to test first. Let's see if the pink star helps seeds to sprout. Gather me some Sunflower Seeds!"
Gather 30 Sunflower Seeds and bring them to Rosetta's Garden in Cherryblossom Heights.
Progress: # of 30
Story So Far
You're helping Rosetta investigate the pink star. Gather Sunflower Seeds!
An ingredient collecting task! You are looking for Sunflower Seeds if you don't have 30 already. Once you get the required 30 Sunflower Seeds, bring them to Rosetta.
Step 2
I have Sunflower Seeds for Rosetta!Rosetta: "Good. Let's plant the Sunflower Seeds with the pink star, and I'll use pixie dust to hurry up the sprouting process."
"The seeds are planted... I'm adding pixie dust..."
"SIGH. The seeds sprouted normally, so the star didn't help. Well, it made a funny little noise, but I don't see what good that does."
"Maybe the star makes flower bulbs sprout. Let's go get some flower bulbs by playing Pinecone Pop!"
Fly to Snowcap Glade. Earn 25,000 points playing Pinecone Pop. Return to Rosetta's Garden in Cherryblossom Heights when you are done!
Progress: # of 25,000

Step 3
I played Pinecone Pop with Rosetta!Rosetta: "You did good, sugar! And I got a wingload of flower bulbs. Let's see if the pink star helps them sprout!"
"Nope, nothing..."
"Say, what about sick plants? The Truffles in The Silver Trees have been hit by a sickness called "silver spot." Maybe the pink star can cure them."
"Sweet beet, will you fly into The Silver Trees and help the Truffles?"
Enter The Silver Trees Wilderness and help 4 Truffles. Return to Rosetta's Garden in Cherryblossom Heights when you are done!
Progress: # of 1

Step 4
I helped Truffles for Rosetta!Rosetta: "Aw, these poor Truffles do indeed have a bad case of silver spot. I hope the pink star can help!"
"Oh, no..."
"I touched the pink star to the sick Truffles, but nothing happened. I'll have to find a cure for the Truffles some other way."
"In the meantime, I remember a story I heard on the mainland once about a boy who polished a lamp to make a magic genie come out."
"Maybe the pink star needs to be polished to work. Tulip petals are great for polishing. Come on, we'll get some by playing Petal Pick-Up!"
Fly to Cherryblossom Heights. Earn 6,000 points playing Petal Pick-Up. Return to Rosetta's Garden in Cherryblossom Heights when you are done!

Step 5
I played Petal Pick-Up with Rosetta!Rosetta: "Okay, I'm gonna go polish that pink star with these tulip petals I got, and we'll see what happens."
"Well that's odd..."
"Pixie Name Here, are you sure those other stars had powers? Cuz this pink one is as stubborn as a squirrel hoarding an acorn."
"But I won't give up! What if the star squeezes juice out of fruits? That would be helpful. Gather Blueberries, would ya?"
Gather 15 Blueberries and bring them to Rosetta's Garden in Cherryblossom Heights.
Progress: # of 15

You're helping Rosetta investigate the pink star. Gather Blueberries!
Your next task is a gathering one! It’s time to look for Blueberries, if you don’t have 15 already. Once you get the required 15 Blueberries, return to Rosetta and give them to her.
Step 6
I have Blueberries for Rosetta!Rosetta: "Thanks, sugar. I'll go squeeze some Blueberry juice on the pink star and see if that works!"
"Darn!"
"Okay, I'm gonna do one last experiment. Maybe this stubborn star helps flowers bloom. I'll give it a try in my garden right away."
"If that doesn't work, well, the star is awful pretty. I'll display it on a pillow in my room. Will you get a Posy Pillow from Treetop Housewares?"
Fly to Treetop Housewares in Treetop Bend and get a Posy Pillow. Bring it to Rosetta's Garden in Cherryblossom Heights and give it to Rosetta when you are done!

Your Reward
I have a Posy Pillow for Rosetta!Rosetta: "Thanks tons for the pillow, sugar, but I don't need it anymore! I've discovered what the pink star does!"
"I accidentally dropped it in my carrot patch. The star dug itself into the soil, and the next thing I knew, all my carrots were ready to harvest!"
"That's what the star does - it instantly brings an entire crop to harvest! We can use them during seasons when crops fail!"
"Oh, you've made me so happy! You'd better take that last orange star to Fawn double quick and find out what it does. Wish ya luck!"
