Grow a Garden - How to Get the New Gifts FAST

The Grow a Garden Christmas Update Part 2 is now available and brings several major changes that completely transform how the holiday event is played. If you had already made progress in Part 1 or were saving resources, it’s essential that you read this complete guide, as many previous mechanics have been removed or radically changed.

In this blog, I’ll explain everything you need to know to complete the event efficiently, make the most of the new gifts, understand which items are worth it, discover which pets have arrived, and learn the best current strategy to progress quickly without wasting time.

One of the most important changes is that old gifts no longer have any real use. If you try to use one of the gifts you had saved, you will only receive the usual normal rewards, with no connection to the current event.

This confirms something key: The previous event has officially ended.

Now, all progress depends exclusively on the new Christmas gifts introduced in this update.

In this second part of the event, several new types of gifts have been added, each with different rewards and drop rates. These are the gifts currently available:

1. Common Gift 2. Rare Gift 3. Mythical Gift 4. Gold Gift 5. Rainbow Gift

- 3x Common Coal - 10x Event Lantern - 10x Watering Can - 2x Snow Shovel - Peppermint Pop Seed - Christmas Egg

- 1x Peppermint Pop Seed - 3x Small Toy - 3x Harvest Tool - 10x Event Lantern - 1x Christmas Egg - 1x Areaclaimer - 1x Pine Beetle - 1x Levelup Lollipop

- Christmas Egg - 2x Medium Treat - 2x Medium Toy - Gumdrop Seed - Pine Beetle - Areaclaimer - Christmas Sprinkler - Eggnog Chick

- Gumdrop Seed - Christmas Egg - Areaclaimer - Christmas Sprinkler - Large Toy - Christmas Treat - Mystical Snow Globe - Eggnog Chick - Christmas Cracker Seed - Cocoa Cat

- Christmas Egg - Christmas Treat - Large Toy - Mystical Snow Globe - Levelup Lollipop - Grandmaster Sprinkler - Christmas Cracker - Cocoa Cat

To obtain these gifts, you need to donate plants with Christmas mutations to the Elf’s House. However, this is where one of the most important items of the entire update comes into play.

Christmas Radar: The Most Important Item of the Event

The radar allows you to scan and collect only Christmas fruits from your garden, preventing you from wasting time collecting them one by one and avoiding harvesting plants that do not have a Christmas mutation.

This makes farming much faster and far more efficient.

Note: The Christmas Radar can be purchased in Santa's Stash (the event shop).

- Chilled - Frozen - Subzero - Glacial - Arctic - Snowy - Snowfall - Peppermint - Ornamented - Eggnog - Blizzard

As with every event, we have a new Egg that allows us to obtain the pets from the current update. In this case, the following pets are available:

Ability: Nearby Christmas-type plants within range have an increased variant chance!

Ability: Gains additional XP per second for every Reindeer in your garden! Beast of Snow: Occasionally has a chance to mutate nearby fruits with Snowy!

Ability: Occasionally cracks open a random Nutty-type fruit and grants a random reward! Ignores favorited fruit.

Ability: Occasionally devours a fruit with at least 24 mutations to summon the Yeti Night weather! Ignores favorited fruit!

Ability: Grants a chance for every pet mutation from the pet mutation pool to be one of four Ice Golem–exclusive pet mutations!
