How To Get Lilac in Grow a Garden Roblox?
Method 1: Flower Seed Packs (Primary Method)
The most reliable way to obtain Lilac seeds is through Flower Seed Packs. Here’s exactly how to get them:
Purchase from the Honey Shop:
- Regular Flower Seed Pack: 10 Honey (20% chance for Lilac)
- Bulk Flower Seed Pack: 199 Honey (20% chance per pack)
I’ve found that buying the bulk packs gives you better odds overall, as you’re essentially getting multiple rolls at that 20% chance. After opening dozens of packs myself, I typically get 1-2 Lilac seeds for every 5 packs opened.
Method 2: Exotic Flower Seed Pack
The Exotic Flower Seed Pack also offers a 20% chance to contain Lilac seeds. While these packs are more expensive, they have the added benefit of potentially dropping Rainbow Sack seeds, making them worth the investment if you’re looking for multiple rare crops.
Method 3: Rainbow Sack
Interestingly, the Rainbow Sack itself has a 20% chance to drop Lilac seeds when harvested. This creates a potential farming loop where Rainbow Sacks from Exotic packs can yield more Lilacs!
Step-by-Step Guide to Planting Lilac
Once you’ve obtained your precious Lilac seeds, follow these steps for optimal growth:
- Find the Perfect Spot
- Choose an area with at least 7 empty plots (1 for main plant, 6 for offspring)
- Avoid edges of your garden to maximize offspring spawning
- Consider proximity to sprinklers for faster growth
- Plant Your Seed
- Open your inventory and select the Lilac seed
- Click on brown soil to plant
- Each Lilac requires exactly one plot space
- Wait for Growth
- Lilacs are slow-growing crops (similar to Glowshrooms)
- Expect 2-3 hours for full maturity without boosts
- Use fertilizers or sprinklers to speed up the process
- Harvest the Offspring
- A fully grown Lilac produces 6 smaller offspring around it
- These mini Lilacs appear in adjacent empty plots
- Harvest offspring first before the main plant for maximum efficiency
How to Farm Honey for Flower Seed Packs
Since Lilac seeds come from Honey Shop packs, mastering honey farming is crucial:
Bee Swarm Events
Every hour, participate in the Bee Swarm event where bees pollinate your plants:
- Plant high-value crops before the event (I recommend Watermelons or Dragon Fruit)
- Look for the golden glow indicating pollination
- Harvest pollinated crops and convert them using the Honey Combinator
Optimal Honey Farming Strategy
- Set a timer for hourly Bee Swarm events
- Plant your entire garden 10 minutes before each event
- Use multi-harvest crops for continuous honey production
- Keep Giant Ants or other pets that speed up growth
Advanced Lilac Farming: The Lilac Method
Many experienced players use what’s called the “Lilac Method” for massive profits. Here’s how it works:
Setting Up Your Lilac Farm
- Layout: Create clusters of 7 plots (1 center, 6 surrounding)
- Sprinklers: Use all available sprinkler types for maximum growth speed
- Mutations: Target high-value mutations like Frozen, Golden, or Rainbow
Maximizing Offspring Production
The key to Lilac farming is understanding its offspring mechanic:
- Main plant acts as a “mother” producing 6 babies
- Each offspring can be mutated independently
- Offspring inherit some properties from the parent
I’ve discovered that leaving 1-2 plot spaces between Lilac clusters prevents offspring overlap and maximizes your yield per seed.
Best Mutations for Lilac
According to my testing and the comprehensive mutation guide, these are the most profitable Lilac mutations:
- Rainbow Lilac (50x multiplier)
- Requires Rainbow mutation spray or rare chance
- Can sell for billions with proper weight
- Golden Lilac (20x multiplier)
- 1% natural chance or use Dragonfly pet
- Consistent profit maker
- Frozen Lilac (Variable multiplier)
- Occurs during winter events
- Stacks beautifully with other mutations
- Shocked Lilac (50x multiplier)
- Only during thunderstorms
- Position carefully for safety while farming
Tips and Tricks for Lilac Success
Timing Your Purchases
I’ve noticed Flower Seed Pack availability follows patterns:
- Check Honey Shop after server resets
- Stock up during events when drop rates may increase
- Save honey between Bee Swarm events for bulk purchases
Giant Ant Synergy
The Giant Ant gains more hunger points when fed Lilac, as opposed to other fruit. This makes Lilac perfect for:
- Quickly leveling up Giant Ant pets
- Completing feeding quests
- Trading well-fed pets for profit
Storage Strategy
Since Lilacs are limited-time crops, I always:
- Keep 5-10 seeds in reserve
- Never plant all seeds at once
- Save some for future trading opportunities
Common Mistakes to Avoid
1. Planting Too Close Together
New players often plant Lilacs side-by-side, preventing offspring spawning. Always leave space!
2. Harvesting Main Plant First
Always collect offspring before the main plant to avoid losing potential crops.
3. Ignoring Weather Events
Lilacs can receive weather mutations just like other crops. Don’t miss thunderstorms or rain!
4. Selling Seeds Too Early
Lilac seeds may increase in value after events end. Consider holding some for trading.
Is Lilac Worth It?
After extensive testing, here’s my verdict:
Pros:
- Multiple harvests from one seed (7 total plants)
- High base value for a legendary crop
- Perfect for Giant Ant feeding
- Great mutation potential
- Limited availability increases trading value
Cons:
- Slow growth without boosts
- Requires space for offspring
- Limited-time availability
- 20% drop rate can be frustrating
For serious farmers, Lilac is absolutely worth pursuing. The offspring mechanic alone makes it more profitable than single-harvest legendaries.
Alternative Farming Methods
If you’re struggling to get Lilac seeds, consider these alternatives from the best crops tier list:
- Sugar Apple: Similar multi-harvest with high value
- Candy Blossom: Best overall profit crop
- Moon Blossom: Excellent mutation potential

Lilac has a 20% drop rate from Flower Seed Packs, making it uncommon but not the rarest crop. With proper honey farming, you should get one within 5-10 packs.
Can I still get Lilac after the event ends?

Use weather events for free mutations, or invest in mutation sprays. The Rainbow mutation spray is expensive but guarantees the valuable 50x multiplier.
Can Lilac offspring get different mutations?
Yes! Each offspring can receive its own mutations, making a single Lilac seed potentially worth millions when properly farmed.
Is the Lilac Method better than other farming strategies?
For mid to late-game players with proper setup, the Lilac Method rivals even the best macro farming techniques in terms of profit.
Conclusion
Getting Lilac in Grow a Garden might require some patience and honey grinding, but the rewards are absolutely worth it. This legendary crop’s unique offspring system and high profit potential make it a must-have for serious gardeners. Remember to stock up during events, maximize your honey production during Bee Swarms, and always leave room for those valuable offspring to spawn.
