The Beanstalk Tree is one of the most exciting limited-time features in Grow a Garden. By working together with other players and contributing plants to Jack, you can make the Beanstalk sprout and climb it for exclusive rewards. This guide will walk you through how the Beanstalk works, the rules for accessing it, and a complete list of Tropical Plants—including how to obtain them.
How the Beanstalk Event Works
- Contributing Plants to Jack
- Jack will periodically ask for a specific plant type.
- Only the requested plant will count towards Beanstalk growth.
- Submitting the correct plant grants contribution points, which increase your ranking on the nearby leaderboard.
- Leaderboard and Rewards
- All contributions are tracked.
- The player who contributes the most will receive an exclusive bonus reward when the event ends.
- Even if you are not on top, consistent participation still earns you milestone rewards.
- Beanstalk Growth Cycle
- When enough plants are submitted, the Beanstalk Tree will fully grow.
- Once it reaches full height, players have 20 minutes to climb it before it decays and disappears.
- Rewards can be collected while climbing, so it’s best to participate as soon as it appears.
- Contribution Reset
- If you leave and rejoin the game, your contribution points will reset.
- To earn rewards again, you must contribute anew.
Access Requirements
- Climbing the Beanstalk:
Any player can climb and collect rewards, regardless of their contribution count. - Using the Portal:
To unlock access to the portal at the top, you must contribute at least 6 times during the event. This makes contributing a necessity for players who want deeper access.
Milestone Rewards
- 10 Contributions: Unlock the exclusive Bean Fence cosmetic.
- Top Contributor: Receive a unique extra prize for placing first on Jack’s leaderboard.
- General Participation: Rewards while climbing, depending on how far you go.

Strategy Tips for the Beanstalk Event
- Always Check Jack’s Request: Don’t waste plants. Only the plant Jack is currently asking for will count.
- Stockpile Tropical Plants: Since Jack’s requests rotate, it’s smart to keep extras of each type so you can contribute immediately.
- Prioritize Mythical Plants: These give 5 points each, compared to the 4 points from Legendary ones. If you want to climb the leaderboard fast, focus on Mythicals.
- Stay Until the Beanstalk Decays: Rewards are scattered along the climb. The more time you have, the more loot you can collect.
- Don’t Disconnect: Leaving the game wipes your contribution points. If you’re aiming for milestones or the top spot, stay active until the event ends.
- Team Up: The Beanstalk grows faster when many players contribute. Coordinate with others to maximize growth speed and rewards.
Whether you’re climbing for treasure, chasing leaderboard glory, or collecting cosmetics, the Beanstalk event is your chance to shine. Stock up on seeds, prepare your plants, and don’t forget that you can buy Grow A Garden items to make your journey easier and maximize your rewards.
