Grow a Garden Fairy event update: All new pets and traits list, how to unlock them through Enchanted Chests and shops

Popular simulation game Grow a Garden has rolled out the second phase of its Fairy event update, introducing a brand-new realm called Fairy World along with six fresh pets that promise to change the gameplay experience. The Grow a Garden Fairy Part 2 expansion blends fantasy with strategy, giving players new opportunities to unlock pets, boost garden growth, and experiment with rare mutations.

A New World Beckons Players

The Grow a Garden Fairy event update has opened doors to Fairy World, a setting unlike the familiar green lobby that fans are used to. Once inside, players can explore limited-time shops, test their skills in parkour activities, and most importantly, acquire powerful pets.

To reach Fairy World, players must wait 30 minutes after the Fairy event concludes. A Fairy Ring then appears, serving as the gateway to this magical land. Inside, both Enchanted Chests and Fairy Fares Shops offer access to pets that come with distinct traits and gameplay advantages.

List of Pets in the Fairy event Update

Six new pets headline the Grow a Garden Fairy Part 2 update. Each comes with unique abilities that can accelerate growth, enhance XP gains, or even trigger special mutations. Here is a breakdown of the pets and their traits as per a report by Beebom:

• Cardinal (Enchanted Chest): Boosts magical-type plants, allowing them to grow 1.55 times faster. This pet is particularly effective for beginners managing large numbers of magical crops.
  
  
  
• Shroomie (Enchanted Chest): Provides incremental growth boosts to plants based on the number of Fungus-type plants in the garden, with a maximum cap.
  
  
  
• Luminous Sprite Lumina (Fairy Fares Shop): Every 8.04 minutes, it enchants a random plant with the Luminous mutation, making it useful for players focusing on diverse mutations.
  
  
  
• Drake Elder Wisp (Fairy Fares Shop): A fire-breathing helper for Cooking Kits, it enhances cooking speed by over 11 per cent.
  
  
  
• Wisp Elder Wisp (Fairy Fares Shop): Grants an additional XP bonus of 0.46 to all pets as long as the Wisp Well is active, though the high Fairy Points cost of the Wisp Well is a limiting factor.
  
  
  
• Phoenix (Enchanted Chest): Among the most versatile, it adds an age boost to mutated pets and spreads the Flame mutation to fruits in the garden, with a 20 per cent chance of further mutation.
  

Grow a Garden Fairy event: Strategic Value of the New Pets

While the new companions add depth, seasoned players may find their utility limited compared to earlier high-ranking pets introduced in the game’s S- and A-tier collections. For instance, the Phoenix offers access to the new Flame mutation but falls short of the Cockatrice, introduced in the first Fairy update.

The Wisp’s XP bonus looks impressive on paper, but it depends heavily on the placement of the Wisp Well, which requires a substantial investment of Fairy Points. Beginners, however, may benefit significantly from pets like Cardinal, which directly enhance plant growth and yield early profits.

A Blend of Aesthetics and Strategy

What makes this update notable is its combination of aesthetics and gameplay. Fairy World offers visually enchanting settings, but beneath the beauty lies a strategy-driven system where pets serve as multipliers for growth, XP, and mutations. The dual acquisition methods, via Enchanted Chests or Fairy Fares Shops, also ensure players have choices depending on their in-game resources.

The Grow a Garden Fairy event update adds new dimensions to the game with its magical pets, enchanting world, and engaging activities. While not all pets measure up to earlier powerhouses, they offer practical benefits, especially for beginners seeking quick growth or players experimenting with mutations.
