Grow a Garden’s latest update is the Seed Stages Event, which introduces a number of new features that depart significantly from GaG’s formula: evolving seeds and battle passes, in particular, promise to overhaul some of the most basic mechanics we’ve grown used to over the months since the game’s release.
One thing that hasn’t changed too much at its core, though, is the introduction of new pets. The Seed Stages Event comes with a loose bit of jungle theming for many of its new critters, but really anything goes at this point. Read on to learn how to obtain everything from tigers and chimpanzees to blue jays and silver dragonflies, as well as what their unique traits bring to your garden!
Grow a Garden Seed Stages Event pets
There are two methods of obtaining the new pets from the Seed Stage Event:
- Hatching a Jungle Egg, which can be obtained from the Egg Shop for 60,000,000 Sheckles, and is also a possible reward when submitting a Tier 3 plant during the Seed Stages event.
- By progressing through the Season Pass; unlike most Grow a Garden events, the Season 1 Pass will be available for a longer period of time, and is expected to end on November 1st, 2025.
Here’s every pet added in the Seed Stages Event, although happily it seems like at least some of them will be available for a few weeks after the event ends:
| Pet Name | Obtained via… | Trait / Skill |
|---|---|---|
| Tree Frog | Jungle Egg (40% chance) | Every 3 minutes, advances the growth of a random plant by 15 minutes |
