📖 Overview
Tulip is an Uncommon single-harvest plant in Sam’s Seed Shop at 40 Sheckles. It has a 100% appearance chance (always available) and a 1.5x value-to-cost ratio — meaning it earns back its seed cost plus 50% profit on every normal harvest. The community at growagarden2wiki.net confirms Tulip has the second-best value-to-cost ratio of any Sheckle-priced seed in the game, behind only Carrot (5x). Multiple guides cite it as the recommended first Uncommon crop: ‘At 40 shekels, uncommon Tulip stays at 100% stock and gives better value than the early commons.’

🛒 How to Get Tulip
Buy from Sam’s Seed Shop at 40 Sheckles. Always in stock — no waiting. You can buy Tulip on your very first restock check once you have 40 Sheckles from Carrot farming. Stack your plots with Tulips, farm the single harvests, and reinvest into more Tulips until you reach 700 Sheckles for Bamboo.
🌿 What Tulip Does

🎲 Lucky Double Odds
These odds use the high-luck 5% double chance; lower luck makes chains rarer. Each lucky double has to roll again, so the odds shrink fast. The table shows examples from this plant’s normal minimum and from its normal cap.

📝 Detailed Notes
The progression path confirmed by the community: Carrot (1 S) → Tulip (40 S) → Bamboo (700 S) → Mushroom (15,000 S). Tulip is not a long-term crop — its job is to bridge the gap between Carrot income and the 700 Sheckles needed for Bamboo. Once you have multiple Bamboo seeds running, Tulip becomes irrelevant. But until you reach Bamboo, Tulip is the most efficient use of your Sheckles at Uncommon tier.
