What is Fall Bloom in Grow a Garden?
The Fall Bloom is a special event mechanic where your family submits different types of plants to the Fall Tree NPC. Each submission helps grow the tree and unlocks rewards like new seeds, pets, and cosmetics. It’s designed to encourage strategic farming and family collaboration.
The Fall Bloom system represents the core mechanic of the Fall Market Event, requiring players to strategically submit plants across nine different categories to unlock increasingly valuable rewards. Unlike previous seasonal events that relied solely on currency exchange, Fall Bloom emphasizes preparation, plant diversity, and long-term planning.
How Fall Bloom Works?
The mechanic operates on a submission-based progression system where players contribute plants to the Fall Tree NPC. Each plant submission advances your progress toward exclusive rewards, with different plant categories offering varying point values based on rarity and difficulty to obtain.
Fall Tree Plant Categories & Submission Strategy
The Fall Tree accepts plants across nine different categories, each offering unique strategic advantages for different player types. Understanding these categories is essential for maximizing your reward progression.
Complete Plant Category Breakdown
| Category | Example Plants | Point Value | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Berry | Strawberry, Blueberry, Raspberry, Cranberry | 1-4 points | Beginner farmers |
| Flower | Rose, Tulip, Lavender, Cherry Blossom | 2-4 points | Aesthetic collectors |
| Fruit | Apple, Banana, Dragon Fruit, Mango | 4-6 points | High-value submissions |
| Leafy | Lettuce, Spinach, Kale, Mint | 1-3 points | Easy accessibility |
| Sweet | Peach, Mango, Pineapple, Candy Blossom | 5-7 points | Premium reward hunters |
| Tropical | Coconut, Papaya, Kiwi, Starfruit | 4-6 points | Exotic plant specialists |
| Vegetable | Carrot, Corn, Pumpkin, Tomato | 3-4 points | Reliable submissions |
| Prickly | Cactus, Prickly Pear, Dragon Fruit | 3-5 points | Unique autumn varieties |
| Woody | Twisted Tangle, Dragon Sapling | 3-7 points | Rare and valuable |
Strategic Plant Selection
Focus on growing diverse plant types before the event begins rather than concentrating on single categories. Plant types are one of the main features in Grow a Garden and are especially useful during new events and updates, where you must submit specific crops with a trait. This diversity ensures you can contribute to all nine categories efficiently.
Pro Strategy: Prioritize Sweet and Woody category plants as they offer the highest point values (5-7 points) while being achievable for experienced players. These categories include premium crops like Candy Blossom and rare woody plants that significantly accelerate your progression.
Fall Bloom Reward Tiers & Unlock Requirements (March 2026)
The Fall Bloom progression system rewards players with increasingly valuable items as they submit more plants to the Fall Tree. Each milestone unlocks exclusive content that won’t be available after the event ends.

Priority Reward Analysis
Must-Have Rewards for March 2026:

The 7-submission milestone offers exceptional value with dual rewards, making it the optimal stopping point for casual players while dedicated farmers should aim for the full 10 submissions to secure the Sugar Glider.
New Seeds & Fall Market Shop Content
The Fall Market introduces exclusive autumn-themed content across four specialized shops: seeds, pets & eggs, gear, and cosmetics. To restock these shops, you’ll need to hand in different Grow a Garden plants at the Tree NPC, making resource management more important than ever.
Exclusive Fall Seeds Available
| Seed Name | Rarity | Unlock Method | Special Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kniphofia Seed | Rare | 6 Fall Tree submissions | Torch-like appearance, fiery autumn colors |
| Golden Peach Seed | Legendary | 7 Fall Tree submissions | Premium value crop, golden aesthetic |
| Maple-inspired Seeds | Various | Seed Shop rotation | Traditional autumn colors |
| Chestnut Plant | Rare | Event currency purchase | Classic fall harvest item |
Shop Rotation Strategy
The Fall Market shops operate on rotating stock, with different items appearing throughout the week. Check all four shops daily to avoid missing limited-time offerings. Items purchased with event currency are typically more valuable than those available through regular submissions.
Shopping Priority List:
- Limited-time seeds (highest priority)
- Event-exclusive pets
- Seasonal decorations and gear
- Cosmetic items (lowest priority)
New Pets & Event Exclusive Companions
Your family can collect several exclusive autumn pets including the Red Squirrel (unlocked after 4 Fall Tree submissions), Chipmunk (7 submissions), Sugar Glider (10 submissions), Fall Egg (available in the Pet Shop), and the mysterious Space Squirrel.
Complete Fall Market Pet Guide
| Pet Name | Unlock Requirement | Special Abilities | Strategic Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Red Squirrel | 4 Fall Tree submissions | Boosts seed collection | Ideal for farming efficiency |
| Chipmunk | 7 Fall Tree submissions | May duplicate seeds | Perfect for rare seed hunting |
| Sugar Glider | 10 Fall Tree submissions | Premium abilities (TBA) | Ultimate achievement pet |
| Fall Egg | Pet Shop (event currency) | Seasonal bonuses | Accessible for all players |
| Space Squirrel | Unknown requirements | Mystery abilities | Special challenge pet |
Pet Synergy & Farming Benefits
The Fall Market pets are designed to complement existing farming strategies while providing unique autumn-themed benefits. The Red Squirrel’s seed collection boost makes it invaluable for players focusing on seed diversity, while the Chipmunk’s potential duplication ability can help secure rare plant varieties needed for Fall Tree submissions.
Advanced Pet Strategy: Prioritize unlocking the Chipmunk at 7 submissions, as its seed duplication ability can help you generate additional plants for the remaining 3 submissions needed to reach the Sugar Glider milestone.
Weather Events & Environmental Changes
The Fall Market introduces dynamic weather systems that affect your garden’s appearance and potentially provide gameplay benefits. These weather effects create an immersive autumn atmosphere while offering functional advantages for strategic players.
New Weather Patterns
- Autumn Rain: Enhanced plant growth rates
- Foggy Mornings: Mysterious atmospheric effects
- Leaf Storms: Visual autumn ambiance
- Golden Hour Lighting: Premium screenshot opportunities
The dynamic weather system isn’t purely cosmetic – certain weather patterns can boost plant growth rates or trigger special rewards. Monitor weather forecasts and plan planting schedules around beneficial conditions.
Pre-Event Preparation Guide (2026)
Success in the Fall Market Event requires strategic preparation before the official launch. Since the event runs for only one week, maximizing your time during the active period is crucial for securing all exclusive rewards.
Essential Pre-Event Checklist
Plant Preparation (Critical):
- Grow at least 15-20 plants across all nine categories
- Focus on high-value categories: Sweet, Woody, Fruit
- Stockpile common plants for early submissions
- Prepare rare plants for premium reward unlocks
Resource Management:
- Save event currency from previous events

Time Management Strategy:
- Set multiple family alarms for 9:00 AM EST on September 13th for Admin Abuse session

Advanced Preparation Techniques
Multi-Category Plant Farming: Instead of focusing on single plant types, dedicate garden plots to each of the nine Fall Tree categories. This ensures you can submit plants strategically rather than being limited by availability.
Pet Optimization: Configure your current pet lineup to boost the growth of plants you’ll need for Fall Tree submissions. For example, use pets that enhance Berry plants or boost Sweet category crops.
Admin Abuse Session & Early Access Benefits
The Admin Abuse session begins one hour before the main Fall Market Event, offering exclusive opportunities for dedicated players. These special developer-hosted sessions often feature rare seeds and special bonuses that aren’t available once the main event starts.
Admin Abuse Timing Breakdown

Maximizing Shop Currency & Resource Management
Event currency management becomes crucial when dealing with rotating shop inventories and limited-time exclusive items. Understanding the currency sources and optimal spending priorities ensures you secure the most valuable content.
Currency Generation Methods

Advanced Fall Bloom Strategies for Experienced Players
Players with extensive Grow a Garden experience can leverage advanced techniques to maximize Fall Market Event benefits while building toward long-term farming success.
