Leafy Corner Achievements

All 26 Steam achievements

The master table below lists every verified Leafy Corner achievement with Steam global unlock rate, official description, and an editorial difficulty/time tier. Scan by rate to spot quick wins versus endgame grinds — Plant Collector and Growing Collection need deliberate token routing from the plants guide.

How to read the difficulty column

These tiers are editorial, not Steam labels. Automatic and Easy trophies usually pop during normal first-week play if you follow the beginner guide. Medium needs a deliberate habit — orchid maturity for Blooming Beauty, fifteen copies of one species for Showing Preference. Grind counters track cumulative plants sold, customers helped, tokens spent, or species unlocked. RNG applies only to variegation discovery for Rare Find — see variegations for protection habits.

Pricing for Big Sale without stalling Keeping Busy

Big Sale wants one $100+ transaction, not average ticket size. Keep one large-format species — often a fully mature large-tier plant from the plants guide — marked for sale while you churn cheaper small pots for Keeping Busy. Mature plants sell slower but spike price; propagate siblings so you are not empty during customer rushes.

If a walk-in almost buys your showcase pot, use This One's Mine (mark not for sale) before the rush — covered in the collection section — so Big Sale does not conflict with variegation protection.

Income grinds run in parallel

Steady Income and Keeping Busy are hidden counters that never reset. You do not need to finish one before starting the other. Daily task cash, phone order payouts (once unlocked), and walk-in sales all feed Steady Income. Propagation lets you sell volume without burning Plant Tokens on duplicate unlocks.

Month Goes By is the only sales-group trophy tied to calendar time — plan at least thirty sleep cycles. Combined with reputation grinding, most players hit it naturally before Plant Collector unless they speed-run tokens on day one.

Compendium habits for Plant Matchmaker

Walk-in customers describe trait needs — pet-friendly, trailing, hardy, succulent, size tier. The customers guide maps each tag to Compendium filters. Plant Matchmaker counts successful helps only; a single deliberate fail for That Wasn't Quite It does not reset progress.

During reputation rushes, open the Compendium before clicking a customer. Failed matches hurt reputation and waste time — the opposite of what Leafing A Good Impression needs later.

Phone order pipeline for Orders and Plantastic Service

Phone orders arrive after mid-tier reputation unlocks. Each order lists species traits and a size tag (small, medium, large). Stock backup pots at each size tier so Orders, Orders! fires the first time the phone rings.

Plantastic Service is a straight 30-completion counter. Prioritize orders on days when walk-ins are slow; delivery prep is covered in the orders guide. Orders and walk-ins both raise reputation — stack them while pushing toward level 6.

Token and decor routing

Little Investment tracks spent tokens, not balance. Unlock species you can keep in the blue watering zone — the plants guide lists trait coverage needed for customer and collection achievements. Pot Collector and Cozy Corner are cosmetic counters; finish them in quiet sessions so sales never stall.

Place fifteen decorations in one end-of-day session for Cozy Corner using inexpensive items. Functional shelves count toward shop capacity while props satisfy the achievement — see decor timing in tips.

Expansion and reputation milestones

Room To Grow fires when you purchase the shop expansion — community baseline is reputation level 3 with roughly $1000 saved. Expansion adds grow space required for Showing Preference, No Such Thing As Too Many, and compendium grinds.

Leafing A Good Impression and Best In Town need sustained good service: complete daily tasks, match customers, fulfill orders, keep plants watered. The reputation guide lists tier unlocks; missing Best In Town usually means rushing token spend without reputation income, not bad luck.

Trait stacks without drowning in watering

Pet Approved, Touch Of The Desert, and Let It Hang count grown plants — propagation increments the counter even if you never sell. Batch seeds of each trait during expansion so tables stay organized. The watering guide droplet UI matters more here than during early sales — rot sets back growth days.

Showing Preference needs fifteen live copies in the shop simultaneously, not lifetime propagated. Pick a fast mature cycle species and fill one expanded wall. Green Giant is the opposite — one large-tier plant to full maturity; keep it marked not for sale until the achievement pops if you rely on its sale price.

Variegations and compendium completion

Rare Find requires three separate variegation discoveries — white or yellow marbled leaves appearing while a base species grows. You cannot buy variegations from seed catalogs. Mark each with This One's Mine the moment leaves marble; customer rushes sell them instantly.

Growing Collection (30) and Plant Collector (60) measure unlocked base species in the Compendium. Variegation variants do not count. Plan token spend toward breadth early if you want 100% — leaving both for sandbox after Best In Town turns a four-hour run into a much longer catalog chase. No Such Thing As Too Many (500 grown) often completes naturally if you propagate for trait achievements instead of buying every seed.

Orchid and large-format milestones

Blooming Beauty specifically names orchids — start one early, keep it in the blue zone, and avoid propagating the parent until maturity completes. Green Giant accepts any large-category plant at full leaf stage; check Compendium size tags before dedicating table space.

If Plant Collector is your last trophy, cross-check the Compendium grid against the master table above — missing species are usually gated by reputation tier or forgotten token spend, not hidden quests.

What to defer without breaking the run

No Such Thing As Too Many (500 plants) and Plant Collector (60 species) can wait until sales and reputation trophies are done — they need space and tokens more than time. Rare Find should not wait: propagate widely from day one because variegation RNG has no pity timer.

Use the demo guide if you want trait-tag muscle memory before the full save. Demo progress does not carry over, but Compendium habits do.

Daily rhythm that hits the most counters

Morning: water pass → daily task → check phone order. Daytime: walk-ins with Compendium → propagate trait stacks in gaps. Evening: decor or token unlocks → sleep. That rhythm feeds Month Goes By, Plant Matchmaker, Plantastic Service, reputation tiers, and watering-dependent collection feats simultaneously.

When stuck on one trophy, cross-link to the grouped section above rather than resetting the save — almost every counter is cumulative except Showing Preference (needs 15 live copies at once) and Big Sale (needs one $100+ transaction).
