Petal Bee in Grow a Garden — Legendary Pet Complete Guide
The Petal Bee is a Legendary-rarity pet in Grow a Garden (Roblox), hatched from a Bee Egg with a 4% chance during the Bizzy Bee Event. Its passive ability applies the Pollinated mutation (3× sell value) to a nearby fruit every 24 minutes and 43 seconds. It also has a 1.21% chance to retain a Flower-type fruit after harvesting.
⚠️ Rarity note: Some sources (notably Sportskeeda) incorrectly classify the Petal Bee as Mythical. The Fandom Wiki, TradeKitsune, Game.Guide, Gamezebo, GINX TV, and calc.garden all confirm the Petal Bee is Legendary rarity.
Quick Stats — Petal Bee at a Glance
What Is the Petal Bee in Grow a Garden?
The Petal Bee is a Legendary-rarity pet in Grow a Garden (Roblox) — not a real-world bee, and not related to the base Bee pet (Uncommon). In this context, “Petal Bee” refers specifically to the Legendary event-exclusive companion pet that hatches from the Bee Egg at a 4% drop rate during the Bizzy Bee Event. The name refers to its distinctive pink flower-petal visual theme, including its iconic pink falling-flower particle trail.
The Petal Bee was first introduced in the Bizzy Bee Event 2025 on May 31, 2025 (patch 1.08.0 — “Bizzy Bees Out Now!”) and returned in the Bizzy Bee Event 2026 starting May 2, 2026. Outside these event windows, the Bee Egg is removed from the Honey Shop and the Petal Bee is obtainable only via player-to-player trading.
Petal Bee Rarity and Event Origin
As a Legendary-rarity pet, the Petal Bee sits in the second-highest tier — above Rare, Uncommon, and Common, but below Mythical and Divine. Within the Bee Egg specifically, it is the rarest F2P-obtainable result: the only rarer option is the Divine Queen Bee at 1%, which is even harder to hatch. You need approximately 17 Bee Eggs for a 50% cumulative chance of a Petal Bee.
Visual Appearance
The Petal Bee has a white body with pink stripes, pink antennae, light translucent wings, and a circular smiley face. Its defining feature is a continuous pink falling-flower particle trail — making it the only bee pet in the game that does not use the standard yellow-and-black bee palette. DurbinRock describes it as “the most attractive bee visual in the game” — creating substantial collector demand independently of farming utility.
Petal Bee Ability — What It Does
The Petal Bee in Grow a Garden has two passives: every 24 minutes and 43 seconds, it flies to a nearby fruit and applies the Pollinated mutation, tripling its Sheckle value. It also has a 1.21% chance to leave a Flower-type fruit in the plot after harvest, which is useful in flower-focused gardens.
Both abilities are fully passive — no button, no trigger, no player input required. They run automatically while the Petal Bee is equipped and has hunger remaining. The Pollinated mutation also counts as valid input for the Honey Combpressor during the Bizzy Bee Event, making the Petal Bee doubly useful during the event window.
🌸 PRIMARY PASSIVE
Pollination — Pollinated 3×
Every 24 minutes and 43 seconds (at base weight), the Petal Bee applies the Pollinated mutation (3× sell value multiplier) to a nearby fruit. Pollinated fruits are also valid Honey Combpressor input during the Bizzy Bee Event.
🌺 SECONDARY PASSIVE — UNIQUE
Flower Retention — 1.21% Chance
After any Flower-type crop is harvested, there is a 1.21% chance the fruit remains in the plot for a free extra harvest. Source: DurbinRock (1.21%); Fandom (~1%); Deltia range (1.17%–1.29%). No other bee pet has this ability.
Pollination Passive — How It Works
The 24:43 cooldown is the most precisely measured figure for any bee pet — sourced from DurbinRock's direct in-game testing and corroborated by Theria Games. The Fandom Wiki rounds it to “approximately 25 minutes”. Cooldown decreases slightly as pet weight increases, so a Huge or Titanic Petal Bee pollinating marginally more frequently than a Normal one.
📊 Worked Example — Pollination
A Dragon Fruit with a base value of 4,287 Sheckles becomes 12,861 Sheckles when the Petal Bee applies the Pollinated mutation (3× multiplier). Source: Sportskeeda in-game measurement.
Flower Retention Passive — The Hidden Ability
The flower retention passive is the Petal Bee's true differentiator. No other bee pet has it. After a Flower-type crop is harvested, the Petal Bee has a 1.21% chance to leave the fruit behind — giving you a free extra harvest. Over 1,000 Sunflower harvests, this yields approximately 12 retained flowers statistically.
🌸 Flower-Type Crops that Trigger the Retention Passive
Sources: DurbinRock, Gamezebo. Only applies to these Flower-type crops — not general fruit.
📊 Worked Example — Flower Retention
A Sunflower plot harvested 1,000 times will statistically retain the Sunflower fruit approximately 12 times (1.21% × 1,000). Each retained flower is a free re-harvest or a free Honey Combpressor deposit worth ~10 Honey Coins during the event.
How to Get the Petal Bee in Grow a Garden
To get the Petal Bee in Grow a Garden, purchase a Bee Egg from the Honey Shop for 18 Honey Coins (earned via the Honey Combpressor during the Bizzy Bee Event) or for 129 Robux. Place the Bee Egg on a plot and wait approximately 4 hours 10 minutes to hatch — there is a 4% chance of getting a Petal Bee.
⚠️ Critical disambiguation: The Petal Bee is NOT available from the Anti Bee Egg. The Anti Bee Egg contains only: Wasp, Tarantula Hawk, Moth, Butterfly, and Disco Bee. If you want a Petal Bee, you need the standard Bee Egg — not the Anti Bee Egg.
Join the Bizzy Bee Event 2026
The Bee Egg is only available during the Bizzy Bee Event. The 2026 edition started May 2, 2026. Outside the event window, the Petal Bee can only be obtained via player-to-player trading.
Earn Honey Coins via the Honey Combpressor
Harvest Pollinated or HoneyGlazed fruits and deposit them into the Honey Combpressor (~3 min per jar). Each jar yields 10 Honey Coins. You need 18 Honey Coins per Bee Egg. The Honey Shop refreshes hourly — Bee Eggs are not always in stock.
Purchase a Bee Egg from the Honey Shop
Spend 18 Honey Coins at the Honey Shop (Queen Bee NPC) to buy one Bee Egg. Alternatively, buy a Bee Egg for 129 Robux from the Limited Time Shop. Both give the same drop pool and same 4% Petal Bee hatch rate.
Place the Egg on a Plot — Wait ~4 Hours 10 Minutes
Place the Bee Egg on any garden plot. Hatch time is approximately 4 hours 10 minutes. Equip a Kiwi, Rooster, or Chicken pet to reduce hatch time. The Petal Bee has a 4% chance — expect approximately 17 eggs for a 50% cumulative chance.
Alternative: Trade Directly from Another Player
If the event is not active, trade via TradeKitsune or community channels. Standard non-mutated Petal Bees list for 250B–500B Sheckles. Huge, mutated, or Rainbow-mutation specimens command significantly higher prices.
🌿 F2P Route — Honey Coins
Earn 18 Honey Coins via Honey Combpressor (~2 full batches of pollinated crops) then buy a Bee Egg from the Honey Shop (hourly restock). Hatch on any plot — 4% chance per egg.
💎 Robux Route — 129 R$

Is the Petal Bee Good? — Meta Tier & Use Cases
The Petal Bee is good in flower-heavy gardens where its 1.21% Flower-retention passive provides consistent value, but it is outperformed by Bear Bee (Honey Glazed 5×), Queen Bee (Divine support), and Disco Bee (125×) in most farming setups. It is ranked B-tier — a niche pick for flower specialists and collectors.
✅ When Petal Bee Excels
- Gardens with multiple Flower-type plots (Sunflower, Pink Lily, Purple Dahlia, Moonblossom)
- Farming for Honey Combpressor Honey Coin generation
- Paired with Mimic Octopus for double Pollination coverage
- Collectors who value the unique pink particle trail
- Active Bizzy Bee Event window
❌ When to Pick Something Else
- No flower plots? → Bear Bee (5×) is always stronger for general farming
- Highest mutation value? → Disco Bee (125×, Anti Bee Egg) is S+ tier
- Team cooldown support? → Queen Bee is the clear choice
- Faster pollination? → Honey Bee has ~20 min cooldown
🎨 Collector Value
The pink particle trail gives the Petal Bee significant collector demand beyond farming utility. Real trade evidence: ZeusX listed an 8.72 kg Huge Petal Bee; a Titan Mega Petal Bee has been referenced on TikTok. The Rainbow mutation variant is considered the most desirable Petal Bee for farming (cooldown ~20 min; flower retention ~1.45%).
Petal Bee vs Other Bee Pets — Full Comparison
The Petal Bee sits at B-tier in the full Bee family hierarchy. Here's how it compares against every bee pet in Grow a Garden — both the Bee Egg and Anti Bee Egg lines:
| Pet | Rarity | Egg | Cooldown | Mutation | Tier |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🐝 Bee | Uncommon | Bee Egg 65% | ~25 min | Pollinated 3× | D |
| 🍯 Honey Bee | Rare | Bee Egg 25% | ~20 min | Pollinated 3× | C |
| 🌸 Petal Bee | Legendary | Bee Egg 4% | 24:43 (measured) | Pollinated 3× + Flower | B |
| 🐻 Bear Bee | Mythical | Bee Egg 5% | ~25 min | Honey Glazed 5× | A |
| 👑 Queen Bee | Divine | Bee Egg 1% | ~20 min + 22:08 refresh | Pollinated 3× + Utility | S |
| 🦋 Butterfly | Mythical | Anti Bee Egg 1% | ~30 min | Rainbow 50× (replaces) | A |
| ✨ Disco Bee | Divine | Anti Bee Egg 0.25% | 15:06 cycle | Disco 125× (additive) | S+ |
Verdict: Bear Bee (A-tier, 5×) outperforms the Petal Bee in most gardens. The Petal Bee's flower retention passive is a genuine niche advantage in flower-heavy setups, and its best role is as part of the Petal Bee + Bear Bee + Queen Bee flower garden trio — Petal Bee retains flowers, Bear Bee applies 5× on retained flowers, Queen Bee refreshes both cooldowns every 22:08.
Size Thresholds — Huge, Titanic & Godly Petal Bee
Like all pets in Grow a Garden, the Petal Bee uses universal hatch-weight thresholds. Standard hatch weight is 0.88–2.20 kg. There is roughly a 0.1% chance of a Huge multiplier at hatch, yielding 3.52–8.80 kg — enough for Normal through Godly tier.
| Size | Hatch Weight Threshold | Value Multiplier | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | 0.88 – 4.99 kg | 1× | Standard hatch; most common |
| ⭐ Huge | ≥ 5 kg | ~6.7× base | ~0.1% at hatch; ZeusX example: 8.72 kg |
| 🔵 Titanic | ≥ 7 kg | Significantly higher | Very rare; needs Huge multiplier + high roll |
| 🟣 Godly | ≥ 9 kg | Collector pricing | Extremely rare; community showcase tier |
Pet Mutations for Petal Bee (Mega, Inverted, Rainbow)
Note: There is no such thing as an “Inverted Petal Bee” as a separate pet. Inverted is a universal pet mutation applied via the Pet Mutation Machine — it modifies the Petal Bee's appearance and XP rate but does not create a different species.
All pets in Grow a Garden can receive mutations from the Pet Mutation Machine (requires Age 50+, costs 500,000,000 Sheckles, takes 1 hour — note: age resets to 1 after mutation). The three universal pet mutations and their effects on a Petal Bee:
| Mutation | Chance | Effect on Petal Bee |
|---|---|---|
| 🔶 Mega | 6.43% | Huge size + +20 XP/sec; massive visual scale increase |
| 🔄 Inverted | 16.08% | +30% XP/sec; inverts Petal Bee colour palette |
| 🌈 Rainbow | 3.22% | Cooldown → ~20 min; flower retention → ~1.45% · Best farming variant |
Best Pet Pairings for Petal Bee
