Appearances[edit]
In New Leaf[edit]
In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Leif runs the Garden Shop, where the player can buy flowers, saplings, fertilizer, and gardening tools such as the watering can and the axe. As a nod to his ownership of the store, Leif's name is a pun on the word "leaf." After Timmy and Tommy's store expands to T.I.Y., the Garden Shop will merge, Leif will have a new, larger selection of items, and additionally will offer a weed-pulling service.
Depending on the version of the game, on a certain day, Leif hosts Weeding Day. When all the weeds are pulled, Leif rewards the player with a prize which consists of one of the furniture items from the Flower set. If the day starts and there are no weeds in town, Leif rewards the player with a special award: the Happy Generosity Award. In addition, he makes three public works projects - the round, square, and tulip topiaries - available for erection and gifts the player with a flower bag containing a hybrid flower.
Leif may be found in the player's town if more than 50 weeds are present, fast asleep, and if spoken to, he wakes up and asks the player to help pull the weeds. He will maintain a count of the remaining weeds so that the player knows how many still need to be uprooted. Depending on how many weeds the player pulled and whether it was done in their own town or another player's town, he will gift the player with a random flower bag, fertilizer, perfect fruit, or an exclusive furniture item as a reward for completing the task.
In New Horizons[edit]
While initially absent from Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Leif returned in the 1.2.0 April Free Update. Leif regularly appears in front of the Resident Services building to sell an assortment of gardening goods, such as a in-season and a out-of-season shrub start and non-native flowers. Since 1.5.0, he has sold Pumpkin Starts to the player, which until 1.6.0 was originally locked in October. He also buys weeds for twice their usual selling price. His shop closes at 10 PM.
Outside of Nature Day, if the player purchase from Leif on three separate occasions, he'll give the player a DIY recipe for a Hedge.
