The Beanstalk event in Grow a Garden introduced some very unique features, including the Friendship Shop and a brand new pet that I find very interesting: the Gnome. This Legendary pet has a unique ability that synergizes with cosmetic items in your garden, making it a fun and strategic addition for players who love to decorate.

This guide will cover the Gnome’s appearance, its special ‘Gnome Collector’ trait, and how you can add this charming creature to your pet collection.
🌱 Appearance
The Gnome pet looks exactly like you’d expect! Its design is based on the Gnome cosmetic item that you can place in your garden, but it’s been slightly adjusted to function as a pet. It’s a classic, charming garden gnome that will look right at home among your plants.
✨ The ‘Gnome Collector’ Trait
The Gnome’s passive ability is what makes it so unique. It’s called Gnome Collector, and its effectiveness is directly tied to how many other gnome-themed items you have. I think this is a really creative mechanic.
- The Gnome has a chance to mutate a random fruit in your garden with the special Gnomed mutation.
- This chance increases for every Gnome cosmetic item you have placed in your garden.
This encourages players to engage with the cosmetic side of the game to boost the power of their pet, which is a great touch. For more on mutations, you can read our complete guide to crop mutations.
📦 How to Obtain the Gnome
The Gnome is not hatched from an egg. Instead, it is a special pet that must be purchased from a specific event shop, making it a unique acquisition.
- Obtaining Method: Purchasable from the gnome NPC in the Friendship Shop, which was part of the Beanstalk event.
- Tier: Legendary
- Hunger: 25,000
