The Ember Lily, a Prismatic permanent seed, made its grand entrance into Grow a Garden on June 7, 2025, as part of the Bizzier Bees and Friendship Update. This elusive crop has captured the attention of players, prompting many to seek guidance on how to acquire it. This guide covers the cost, methods of acquisition, and even which in-game animals can boost your chances of success.
Ember Lily: A Detailed Overview
The Ember Lily quickly became a coveted plant, earning a spot in the S-Rank of the Grow a Garden plant tier list. Its high price, rarity, and decent selling value make it a worthwhile investment for dedicated gardeners.
How to Get Your Hands on an Ember Lily
There are a couple of ways to obtain the Ember Lily in Grow a Garden:
- Sam's Seed Shop: This is the primary method. The Ember Lily seed can be purchased for a hefty 15,000,000 to 20,000,000 Sheckles (the in-game currency). However, due to its 'Prismatic' rarity, the seed only has a 0.03% chance to appear when the shop refreshes every five minutes. Alternatively, you can purchase it directly with 779 Robux.
- Pet Abilities: Certain pets can help you snag an Ember Lily. The Red Fox, for example, has a chance to steal seeds from other players growing Ember Lilies on the same server. This requires luck and a leveled-up Red Fox (obtained from the Mythical Egg with only a 1.79% chance). The Raccoon pet offered a similar ability during the Lunar Glow event.
Tips for Maximizing Your Chances
- Save Up Sheckles: Start selling mutated crops or trading valuable pets to accumulate the necessary wealth.
- Regularly Check Sam's Seed Shop: The shop refreshes every five minutes, so frequent visits can increase your chances of spotting the Ember Lily seed.
- Consider the Red Fox Strategy: Hatch and level up a Red Fox, then actively search for servers where players are growing Ember Lilies.
Once you have an Ember Lily, you can keep it in your garden indefinitely, harvesting flowers to sell. Ember Lily flower sells for an average of 50,000 Sheckles, with Golden mutations going for over 1 million Sheckles. This gives you a chance to obtain a Lucky Harvest seed, particularly if you have a Snail as a pet.
