The Mandrake is a Legendary Pet that was added during the second half of the Beanstalk Event in Grow a Garden.
At first glance, it looks very similar to a crop, but its unique pet texture helps distinguish it from normal plants.
Its special ability works in the Mutation Garden, where it can apply random mutations to crops.
This makes it a very useful companion for boosting growth and experimenting with crop variations.
In terms of value, this is considered one of the best pets of the current event, though it is available for only a limited time.
In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know about the Mandrake Pet in Grow a Garden, including how to get it, its appearance, special ability, and more.

This Legendary Pet can be obtained by opening a Skyroot Chest.
The chest contains a variety of seeds and pets, but the drop chance for this pet is 14.5%.
Its unique ability gives a 3% chance to apply the Rot mutation to a random fruit in your garden.
The pet has a Hunger stat of 10,000, which needs to be maintained in order to level it up further.
In addition, it passively enhances your garden by pollinating fruits every half-hour, boosting both growth and value.
However, this benefit comes with a trade-off—it also increases the cooldowns of other active pets.
