The Cranberry is a limited-time, legendary-tier crop introduced during the Angry Plant Event in Grow a Garden. It is a multi-harvest plant belonging to the Berry, Leafy, Sour, and Fruit categories.
Known for its vivid red color and high market value, the Cranberry quickly became one of the most sought-after crops among veteran players due to its rarity and profitability. Although currently unobtainable, players who managed to collect Cranberry seeds during the event can still cultivate and harvest them.
Overview
The Cranberry stands out for its combination of rarity, aesthetic appeal, and economic value. As a Legendary-tier crop, it yields multiple harvests from a single planting, making it both a collector’s item and a profitable addition to any advanced garden setup.
In Grow a Garden, the Cranberry stands out as one of the most beautiful and legendary crops ever released during the Angry Plant Event. Its bright red berries and rich green leaves make it a favorite among players who love both farming and design. Many players even decorate their plots with Grow a Garden pets that match the crop’s color theme, creating lively gardens where pets wander between rows of Cranberries. Although the crop is no longer obtainable, it remains a symbol of dedication and creativity in the Grow a Garden community.
Appearance
The Cranberry plant is characterized by a sturdy, upright green stem surrounded by small, narrow leaves. Each plant bears clusters of bright red, round berries attached by a brownish-red stem, which gives the crop a natural yet striking appearance.
In-game, the rendered version of the Cranberry differs slightly — instead of two berries, it features three fully ripened red berries along with a red-tinted leaf at the top of the stem. This small detail makes the crop stand out visually compared to similar plants such as the Loquat, which uses a similar model but has yellow fruits instead.
How to Obtain Cranberry Seeds
During the Angry Plant Event, Cranberry seeds were obtainable through several random drop sources. After the event’s conclusion, these methods were discontinued, making the seeds unobtainable except through trading (if allowed in the future).

Farming Information
Once planted, the Cranberry behaves like most multi-harvest crops, producing berries over several cycles before the plant withers. Each harvest yields 2–3 berries, and depending on soil conditions, fertilizer type, and irrigation setup, the output quality and weight can vary.
Unlike other berries, Cranberries do not receive a boost from the Berry Blusher Sprinkler, which makes optimizing their yield slightly more challenging. However, their naturally high value compensates for this limitation.
Uses and Value
Cranberries can be sold directly for a substantial profit or used in crafting recipes that require sour fruits. Due to their high tier, they often contribute significantly to player ranking and seasonal leaderboards when sold in bulk.
Collectors also prize them for their unique appearance and limited availability, making them one of the most iconic plants in the Grow a Garden ecosystem.
Trivia
- Exclusive Berry: Cranberries are the only berry-type crop unaffected by the Berry Blusher Sprinkler.
- Shared Model: The Cranberry shares its 3D model with the Loquat, except that the Loquat’s berries are yellow instead of red.
- Visual Variation: Some Cranberries render with three berries instead of the usual two, possibly as an aesthetic variation or visual glitch.
- Event Legacy: Players who own Cranberry seeds today are among the few who participated in or benefited from the Angry Plant Event, adding a collectible aspect to the crop.
The Cranberry remains one of Grow a Garden’s most iconic and legendary crops — rare, valuable, and visually stunning. Though no longer obtainable, it continues to represent a golden era of special event farming and stands as a prized asset for long-time players.
Those who own the Cranberry plant can enjoy its multi-harvest potential, steady profit, and symbolic prestige as part of their ultimate garden collection.
