If you’re looking for a new pet addition in Grow a Garden, the Tomb Marmot is one Legendary that you need to know about. It was introduced in the Halloween update, and apart from its unique design, it has a special passive ability that’s tied to the spooky theme of this update. This guide explains how to get it, what makes it different, and whether it’s truly worth chasing.

How to Get Tomb Marmot in Grow a Garden
Players have a chance of getting this pet by opening a Spooky Chest. It has a 15% drop rate so you might need to open multiple chests before successfully obtaining it.
Here’s what this pet’s passive does:
Tomb Raid: The pet occasionally burrows into the ground and hides inside a tombstone. When you locate that tombstone, you can claim a random Graveyard cosmetic as a reward. This ability activates roughly every 1 minute 50 seconds to 5 minutes 20 seconds.
This is quite unique and does not give you any boost in terms of plant growth speed or pet XP. It doesn’t steal crops from other gardens nor help with mutations. This brings us to the question:
Is it worth it?
Yes, if you love cosmetics and collectibles. The Tomb Marmot gives free cosmetic rewards via its Tomb Raid ability, and makes the process fun instead of directly buying them from the cosmetics shop. It’s a rare pet from the Halloween event, and it relies heavily on luck, so it’s not the easiest pet to get.
If you prefer pets that boost stats or gameplay efficiency, this one might feel less practical. However, if you’re a player who is more focused on the aesthetic of your garden and wants cosmetics for this purpose, this is the pet you need.
