Get your flowery transmog weapons now while Noblegarden is blooming

If you’re wondering what all the pastel-toned fuss is about this week on Azeroth, Noblegarden has arrived and brought with it the usual assortment of edible currency and long-eared shenanigans. Not much is new with the 2025 edition of this most time-honored egg hunt, with the main addition to the available rewards coming in the form of five flowery weapon transmogs that will help you ring in the spring season with some non-hypoallergenic flair. [Ed’s note: video game flowers are typically hypoallergenic, and if they aren’t you should see about thoroughly dusting your computer.]

I picked up the Faded Floral Staff first, because the idea of my Mage attaching two giant sunflowers to an otherwise unadorned wooden stave fits with my own reluctant embrace of the outdoors. I paired it with the questing set from the Emerald Dream, but anything that features some green and brown with pale yellow highlights will work well with this staff that screams “Look at me! I have the biggest flower!”

The Pristine Floral Stalk is a polearm that resembles an oversize toothpick wrapped in a string of white blooms. It looks to me like it’s perfect for throwing from your favorite mount, and so I put together a Vernal Dragoon look for my Paladin. I started with the Drake Racer’s ensemble but swapped out a few pieces to add some splashes of green (I used the Acid-Etched Pauldrons and Mossy Cartographer’s Compass).

Paradise’s Violet Axe is a one-handed magenta-and-lilac number which initially did not catch my eye. Yet the more I gazed at the color combo, the less I could dismiss it as just another shadow-themed piece. I eventually decided that it reminded me of colors we’d see in certain places all the way back in The Burning Crusade, so I put together a retro Prot Warrior look. I paired the axe with a Bulwark of Azzinoth, and finally found the synergy I was going for with the Murkblood Avenger’s chest and leg pieces.

For the flora-minded Hunters, the Orchid Bow-quet is the perfect springtime centerpiece for a Noblegarden transmog look. A cursory internet search leads me to believe that there are, in fact, no orchids on this weapon — but the cheesy name nearly makes up for the taxonomic faux-pas. Donning a Memory of Ysera in the wrist slot is a surefire way to grab attention when unslinging your petal-adorned ranged weapon.

I tend to pass over dagger transmogs in favor of the flashier staves most of the time, but the Violet Floral Edge is a great example of why you should always view the 3D model before making a critically important transmog purchase. It already has a very sharp appearance with a violet criss-cross architecture and two silver roses, but the animated petals slowly falling away from the pommel really take this one to another level. It goes great with any of the void-inspired looks from your The War Within wardrobe, but I’m going the be donning my Crown of the Violet Rose to go along with this shadowy stabber.

Each of these weapon appearances can be purchased from event vendors for 100 Noblegarden Chocolates. At first glance this seems like a steep price to pay, but if you park yourself strategically between egg spawns you should have no trouble collecting enough colorful currency to create a flowery look that’s sure to be the talk of the season.
