Grow a Garden: How to Get the Anubis Seeds and Gear From the Anubis Coin Shop

Wraproot costs 60 Anubis Coins with no unlock, while Papyrus, Pharaoh's Eye and both Hieroglyphic gear items need Ancient Archeology excavations.

Wraproot costs 60 Anubis Coins with no unlock, while Papyrus, Pharaoh’s Eye and both Hieroglyphic gear items need Ancient Archeology excavations.

In Grow a Garden, the Roblox gardening game, the Anubis event adds five items to Trader Tina’s Anubis Coin Shop. These are three seeds (Wraproot, Papyrus and Pharaoh’s Eye) and two pieces of gear (Hieroglyphic Radar and Hieroglyphic Staff). Every one of them is paid for in Anubis Coins. Only Wraproot is open from the start. The other four stay locked until you complete enough excavations for Archeologist Archie.

Quick answer: Hand Hieroglyphic fruit to Trader Tina for Anubis Coins, then buy from her shop. Wraproot needs no unlock. The rest unlock after 2, 4 or 10 Ancient Archeology excavations.

How to reach Trader Tina’s Anubis Coin Shop

Click “SELL” on the top bar. That takes you toward the selling area of the map.
Walk west into the sand area until you reach Trader Tina. Her stall is striped purple and yellow and carries an “Anubis Coin Shop” sign.
Press E to talk to her and choose option #2, “What do you have for sale?”. The shop window opens with a card for each item.

Two buttons appear on every card: choose the green Anubis Coin option. The purple button beside it costs Robux, which none of these items require. Card quantities are limited, and the shop refreshes at the start of every hour (UTC). A timer like “Restocks in 47m 2s” tells you when the next refill is due.


How to earn Anubis Coins

Anubis Coins come from Trader Tina herself. Talk to her and pick #3 “Submit held fruit” to hand over the fruit in your hand, or #4 “Submit all Hieroglyphic fruits” to turn in every Hieroglyphic fruit you carry. Only fruit with the Hieroglyphic mutation counts.

  • A Hieroglyphic Carrot pays 10 Anubis Coins. Nine of them return “Sold 9 Hieroglyphic fruits for 90 Anubis Coins!”.
  • A Hieroglyphic Wraproot pays 20 Anubis Coins, confirmed with “Sold 1 Hieroglyphic fruit for 20 Anubis Coins!”.

How to get Wraproot

Wraproot is an Uncommon seed that costs 60 Anubis Coins and needs no unlock, so you can buy it on your first visit. Its info button reads “Plant this seed in your garden and watch it grow into a Wraproot plant.”

Press the green Anubis Coin button on the Wraproot card. The stock count drops by one (from “X4 Stock” to “X3 Stock”, for example), and “Wraproot Seed [X1]” shows up in your backpack.

Select the seed in your hotbar and click a dirt plot in your garden. A “Wraproot” label appears over the spot with a timer of “15m 1s”.

Wait roughly 15 minutes for the plant to finish. A fully grown Wraproot is a stump wrapped in pale bandages.
Wait for the fruit to ripen on top of the stump. It is a dark purple, clawed growth that looks like a root, and it took about 20 minutes after the plant finished. You can’t pick it before it’s ripe.

Harvest it once the prompt reads “Collect” under the “Wraproot” label. The fruit lands in your hotbar.

Wraproot is a multi-harvest plant. Right after you pick a fruit, a new one is already growing on the same stump, so one seed keeps paying out. Fruit weights of 3.53 kg and 2.53 kg have come off the same plant.

Hieroglyphic Wraproot and where to sell it

Fruit sitting in your garden during the hourly sandstorm can pick up the Hieroglyphic mutation. A Wraproot that does shows “Wraproot” / “Hieroglyphic” over it and “[Hieroglyphic] Wraproot [3.53kg]” in the hotbar.

When asked “How much is this worth?”, Steven prices the 3.53 kg Hieroglyphic Wraproot at “I’d value it at 83.261K¢”. Tina offers just 20 Anubis Coins for that fruit. At a seed price of 60 coins, selling Wraproot for Sheckles is much more profitable.

Sell Hieroglyphic Wraproot to Steven, and give Tina cheap Hieroglyphic fruit such as Carrots when you need coins.

Wraproot can help with Archie’s dig: it qualifies for Root or Prickly plant requests and has traits that are Magical, Night, and Spooky. Its fruit is heavy, so it fills his kg bar fast.


How Ancient Archeology excavations unlock the other items

The requirement appears on each locked card; one example reads “Complete 2 Ancient Archeology Excavations to unlock”. Archeologist Archie, positioned west of Tina, gives out the Excavations. He requests a single plant trait at a time, for instance, “Looking for Stalky plants!”. His request rotates every 30 minutes, at the hour and half-hour marks (UTC).

Give him harvested fruit with the requested trait, and he counts it by weight. Every find you complete adds one excavation toward the shop unlocks.

How to get Hieroglyphic Radar

Hieroglyphic Radar is Rare gear that costs 250 Anubis Coins. Its card stays locked until you finish 2 excavations. The game describes it as “Scans and collects fruits with Hieroglyphic mutation!”

You can also get it free from Archie. It comes from find 2 (12 kg, right after the 8 kg first find), find 7 (60 kg) and find 13 (200 kg), and find 13 gives two Radars.


How to get Papyrus

Papyrus is a Legendary seed priced at 900 Anubis Coins, locked until you complete 4 Ancient Archeology excavations. It is a single-harvest plant, so it gives one harvest and then it’s gone. Grow time is about 5 minutes 18 seconds. For Archie’s requests it counts as Leafy and Stalky, and it also carries the Safari trait.

How to get Hieroglyphic Staff

Hieroglyphic Staff is Legendary gear that costs 1,250 Anubis Coins and unlocks at 4 excavations. Its game text reads “Grants extra Hieroglyphic mutations during a Dune Storm”, which is the hourly Anubis sandstorm.

Archie also gives out the Hieroglyphic Staff for free: find 3 awards it at 18 kg, find 9 at 95 kg includes two Staffs, find 15 is at 285 kg, and find 18 at 440 kg includes two Staffs.


How to get Pharaoh’s Eye

Pharaoh’s Eye is a Divine seed that costs 5,000 Anubis Coins. It is locked behind 10 Ancient Archeology excavations, and its card reads “Complete 10 Ancient Archeology Excavations to unlock”. It is a multi-harvest plant with a grow time of about 10 hours.
