Gyroid fragments in Animal Crossing: New Horizons are used to grow full gyroids: bury the fragment in a hole, water it, then dig it up the next day. Gyroids are decorative furniture items that make little sounds and move with music, so you can place them in your house or around your island after they grow.

Quick Scoop

  • Bury it. Put the fragment in the ground with a shovel.
  • Water it. This is what makes it “grow” into a gyroid.
  • Wait one day. Then dig up the spot to get the full gyroid.
  • Use it as decor. You can display gyroids anywhere you like, and they have unique sounds.
