Currently, there are three known helpers to never make it into the final version of the game. This includes the Lizard and Bird Experts, and one helper seen in a trailer planting things. While the latter would be described as just a regular helper, it seems as though the other ones would provide hints. Such as the Lizard Experts giving help on things such as a [[Newtgat]] or [[Jameleon]], while the Bird Expert may have given advice with a [[Sparrowmint]], or an [[Eaglair]].

Helpers are characters that are available to assist with some of the jobs that keeping a garden entails. You can have up to five helpers active in your garden at once.

  • Helpers will only work part of the day in the garden. The rest of the time they will go home. To increase the amount of time the Helper spends in the garden, you can purchase a Helper House from Willy Builder.
  • Helpers will leave the garden if they become unhappy. Getting stuck in the garden, or being whacked with the shovel do not make a Helper happy. Whacking them with your shovel causes chocolate coins to fall out from the helper.
  • You can pay Helpers Chocolate coins to increase their happiness. To do so, select the helper and press Button x.png to bring up the menu. A new option will be available to give coins to the Helper. Giving a helper 5 or more chocolate coins increases their happiness by approximately 25% of the happiness meter.
