A flower patch is a type of patch used in the Farming skill to place scarecrows or to grow different kinds of flowers. With the exception of woad and limpwurt plants, scarecrows and fully grown flowers placed in this patch offer complete protection from disease over nearby allotment patches seeded with the appropriate crops (see the table below).

Flower patches are usually found alongside allotment patches, except for the allotment patch on Harmony Island and the flower patch in Kastori.

  1. ^ N×5 mins means the crop will grow a little and can be watered again for each 5 minutes. This happens N times until it is fully grown.
  2. ^ Most flowers yield 1 flower when picked, but woad leaves will yield 3 leaves and limpwurt roots will yield a minimum of 3 and up to 13 roots, depending on Farming level.
  3. ^ Both plant and harvest experience is awarded once when the patch is cleared. If the plant died, only the plant experience is yielded when the patch is cleared.
