Seed / crop tier list

Three independent rankings from three community sources. Each uses a different criterion, so we present all three rather than picking one — no single "correct" ranking exists.

Transparency note: Site A ranks by raw sell value; the other two views come from a deprecated community source that ranked by ROI + defensive utility and by rarity tier. The two deprecated-source views may be inaccurate — use with caution. The different S-tiers across views are expected, not a contradiction. Pick the ranking that matches your goal.
View 1: by base sell value
Site A: base sell value

Source: grow-a-garden2.com/tier-list. Ranks crops purely by their observed base sell value. Best for raw profit-per-harvest analysis.

View 2: by ROI + defense
Deprecated community source: Return on Investment (ROI) + Utility & Defense

Source: archived community source (deprecated, may be inaccurate). Weights return-on-investment and defensive utility (boosting Venus Fly Trap, Moon Bloom, Dragon's Breath). Best if you care about long-term efficiency and night-stealing defense. This view comes from a deprecated community source and may be inaccurate.

View 3: by rarity tier
Deprecated community source: rarity tier (Super > Mythic > Legendary > Epic > Rare > Uncommon > Common)

Source: archived community source (deprecated, may be inaccurate). Pure rarity ranking (Super → Mythic → Legendary → Epic → Rare → Uncommon → Common). Best for understanding seed scarcity and shop drop rates. This view comes from a deprecated community source and may be inaccurate.

Methodology:Two of three tier list views come from a deprecated community source. Use with caution. Cross-source divergence is expected: Site A places Poison Ivy and Sunflower in S-tier (high sell value); the deprecated source places Dragon's Breath, Moon Bloom, Pomegranate, Venus Fly Trap in S-tier (high ROI / defense). Only Ghost Pepper is in S-tier across all sources.
