All Woody & Prickly Plants in Grow a Garden (Full List)

Updated Jul 22, 2026

Quick answer

When Jack's event board asks for woody plants or prickly plants, this is the page to check. Every Grow a Garden crop has one or more hidden TYPES, and event turn-ins are scored by type — donate anything with the right tag and it counts. Lists below come straight from our crop database and update as new crops land.

Every prickly plant

The prickly tag covers the spiky family. Confirmed prickly plants:

Mythical: Cactus · Celestiberry · Dragon Fruit · Pineapple · Prickly Pear · Spiked Mango

Legendary: Aloe Vera · Durian · Horned Dinoshroom · Nectar Thorn · Pricklefruit

Community sources agree there are 20+ prickly crops in total — we list the ones confirmed in-game, and each crop's own page shows its full type tags.

The cheapest turn-ins

For woody points on a budget, Apple and Bamboo grow from cheap Seed Shop stock and re-harvest. For prickly, Cactus and Dragon Fruit are Seed Shop regulars, and Prickly Pear or Pineapple cover summer stock rotations.

How to check any crop's type

Open the crop's page in our crops database — the plant types row in the infobox lists every tag it carries (many crops carry several, e.g. fruit + woody, and all of them count for turn-ins). Types also matter for certain pet passives and crafting recipes, so they're worth knowing outside events too.
