Marigold mutations
Every Marigold you harvest is rolled for a mutation. Giant is a size, so it can land on top of Wet, Frozen or Golden and the prices multiply: a Giant Golden Marigold sells for 120 coins.

The Marigold garden
Upgrading the garden adds pots (up to 6) and, from level 5, makes everything in it grow faster. Standing next to it while it grows speeds it up again (the Green thumb upgrade).

| 1 | 3 | ×1 | 21 s | start |
| 2 | 4 | ×1 | 21 s | 150 coins |
| 3 | 5 | ×1 | 21 s | 400 coins |
| 4 | 6 | ×1 | 21 s | 1,000 coins |
| 5 | 6 | ×1.25 | 17 s | 2,500 coins |
