AboutFruit Trees cycle through three distinct phases: A Dormant Stage, a Blossoming Stage, and a Ripe Stage. A Fruit Tree spends each Coldsnap and begins each Everbloom in the Dormant Stage.

If a Fruit Tree is Pollinated during this stage it will switch to the Ripe Stage. This is the stage where Fruit can be picked. Potable Fruits

Butterfly & Moth PollinationA Butterfly Conservatory, when Any Butterflys or Any Moths are placed inside, will pollinate nearby Fruit Trees during an Everbloom.

A Butterfly Conservatory has a longer range than a Bee Skep but cannot transfer Purity onto the Fruit Trees. How to Pollinate Fruit
CAUTION: Opening a a Bee Skep will cause you to get stung. The severity of the sting is proportionate to the number of Worker Bees in the Bee Skep; generally between 5-15 Blood damage. Fruit PurityEach Everbloom that a Fruit Tree ripes with a Bee Skep in range, will cause your Fruit Tree to gain 10% of the difference between the Fruit Tree's Purity and the Purity of Bee Skep that pollinates it, multiplied by the percent fill of your 60,000 Worker Bees. For instance, if your Fruit Tree is at 0% Purity and your Bee Skep at 90% filled with 30k Worker Bees your Fruit Tree will gain 4.5% (90% x 50% (60k/30k). The Purity of a Bee Skep is equal to the average Purity of the Hay used in it's Fruit PurityEach Everbloom that a Fruit Tree ripes with a Bee Skep in range, will cause your Fruit Tree to gain 10% of the difference between the Fruit Tree's Purity and the Purity of Bee Skep that pollinates it, multiplied by the percent fill of your 60,000 Worker Bees.
