Zelda Ocarina of Time: How to Pick Bomb Flowers [Full Guide]

To pick up Bomb Flowers in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, players must acquire the Goron's Bracelet from Darunia inside Goron City by playing Saria's Song to lift his gloomy mood on Death Mountain. According to verified reports from Game Rant, unequipped adventurers encountering wild Bomb Flowers outside Dodongo's Cavern cannot lift or throw these explosive plants until obtaining this crucial strength upgrade during Link's childhood campaign. To complete the objective, navigate to the bottom level of Goron City, light the torches to open Darunia's throne room, and pull out the Fairy Ocarina to play Saria's Song learned from the Lost Woods. Impressed by the upbeat tune, the Goron patriarch rewards Link with the Goron's Bracelet on the spot. Equipping this passive power enables players to pick mature Bomb Flowers, toss them across cliffs to destroy cracked boulder barricades, and clear the massive boulder sealing Dodongo's Cavern. This mechanic serves as a core progression gate before obtaining the standalone Bomb Bag.
