Getting the Verdant Mutation in Roblox Grow a Garden

Currently, the Verdant Mutation can only be obtained from the Scarlet Macaw in Grow a Garden. This Legendary Pet can be hatched from the Paradise Egg that rarely appears in the Pet Egg Shop. A single Paradise Egg costs 50,000,000 Sheckles or 139 Robux, and has a long hatch time of six hours and 40 minutes.

Scarlet Macaw's passive ability is aptly named Verdant Bird. With it, the multi-colored bird has a base 15.95% chance of applying the Verdant Mutation to a fruit. When it is about to perform its ability, you can see it hovering near a fruit.

The Scarlet Macaw could succeed as well as fail to mutate a fruit. Depending on the result, a personal notification will appear at the top of your screen. Examples have been provided below:

• Success: "Scarlet Macaw applied mutation: Verdant to Moon Melon."
• Failure: "Scarlet Macaw tried to apply the Verdant Mutation to Moon Melon but failed."

You have a slim 8% chance of getting the Scarlet Macaw from the Paradise Egg. Thus, keep saving Sheckles and regularly check the Pet Egg Shop for the egg. If you're lucky, you may get the macaw in your first five hatches.

Effects of the Verdant Mutation in Grow a Garden

In Roblox Grow a Garden, the Verdant Mutation gives the fruit a vibrant green hue, accompanied by a glowing visual effect that seems like fireflies are surrounding the fruit. The changes are a bit difficult to notice on Bamboo and Durian. Nevertheless, they get darker compared to their original color.

Besides giving it a unique appearance, the Verdant Mutation quadruples a fruit's value. This means a Bamboo with an average value of 4000 Sheckles will have its sale value increased to 16,000 Sheckles.

This Mutation has another distinct advantage. When both Sundried and Verdant are available on a crop, they combine to form the Paradisal Mutation. A Paradisal crop is extremely bright and shiny, being among the most coveted crops in the garden management experience.
