Even though the sun doesn’t always shine in Grow a Garden, the conditions are still perfect for farming a range of Tropical Plants that thrive in a jungle climate.
Sometimes, the new event NPC, Jack will ask for your Tropical Plants to help grow his beanstalk up into the clouds so you can visit the Land of the Giants and access Goliath’s store to claim a range of unique fairytale rewards.
However, despite the vast range of fruits and vegetables on offer in Grow a Garden, it’s not exactly clear what counts as a Tropical Plant, and more are being discovered all the time.
A good rule of thumb is that if it’s sweet or smelly, it’s probably a Tropical Plant, but there are a couple of interesting and unexpected additions to the list. Your main problem though is that many of the accepted plants are either event-limited rewards or difficult to obtain without trading.
So you can build up your beanstalk efficiently, here’s everything we’ve found that counts as a Tropical Plant in Grow a Garden.

Tropical Plants are one of the more difficult plant types to contribute to the beanstalk, especially for new players. The early-game plants like Watermelons are relatively slow-growing and don’t actually contribute that many points to your beanstalk progress.
Your best bet is probably to add Coconuts, Dragon Fruit or Mangoes, since they’re easily available from the Seed Shop, or Bananas if you have them.
