Rows of bamboo canes tied at the top, sweet peas scrambling up them in pink, mauve and cream while Bryony snips a posy for the show bench. Should a paid spin bring home nothing at all, each Tendril Knot curls tight round its cane and the remaining cells take a single spin on the house.
The games cost nothing today and will cost nothing in future. Your account looks after your 100,000 coins, favourites, level and daily missions in the shed from one visit to the next — and it lets the committee confirm you are 18 or over before your first spin.
Only virtual coins are used. You will find no real-money gambling, no prizes of real-world value and no in-app purchases. Adults 18+.
Tendril Canes runs along the sunny edge of the plots, where Bryony's sweet peas have climbed past the tops of their canes and the scent reaches the tea hut. It is the softest corner: Twine Pegs and Corkscrew Tendrils turn up small, regular pays, and the Sweet Pea Posy and the Smothered Cane Frame carry the larger ones. The Tendril Knot fills in for anything except the Spotted Cane Cap. When a paid spin pays nothing, each knot holds tight while the rest respin once, free. Three cane caps scattered anywhere grow ten free spins with every win doubled, a fourth cap grows fifteen and a fifth twenty-five.
Tendril Cling. Whenever a paid spin pays nothing, every Tendril Knot in view clings on where it landed and every other cell on the grid gets a single respin that Bryony pays for.
All play here uses free virtual coins. No gambling for real money takes place, wins hold no real-world value, and you cannot make in-app purchases. A random number generator sets each outcome; what happened on earlier spins never alters the next.
Measured by running this page's own engine for 10,000,000 spins: coin RTP 96.3%, hit frequency 43.0%, free spins about once in 116 spins, a win of 10x your stake or more about once in 100 spins. Coin figures only — no money is staked or returned.
Sign in, walk the grass path to the sunny edge of the plots and set your stake beside the tallest row of sweet pea canes.
Spin. A Tendril Knot copies every picture except the Spotted Cane Cap, and if a paid spin pays nothing with knots on show, they hold their canes while every other cell respins once for free.
Three Spotted Cane Caps, wherever they land, grow a bonus of ten spins with every win doubled; four caps on the reels make that fifteen spins, five caps twenty-five.
Anyone after a mild, unhurried session of small and frequent wins, with a second go whenever an empty spin still has a knot on the canes.
The gentlest corner of the allotment. Little wins arrive regularly, and the clinging respin softens the quiet stretches between the bigger ones.

Whenever a paid spin wins nothing and at least one Tendril Knot is on the reels. The knots stay put and every other cell spins once more at no cost.
Then nothing clings, and the canes simply wait for your next paid spin.
Bryony paints every cane top red with seven black spots, partly so nobody walks into a cane on the path and partly because she says the canes ought to look like family.
Missions start again each day and count on every plot. Doing them is entirely up to you.
The striped show tent on show weekend, its trestles bowing under marrows the size of sleeping piglets and leeks laid out like polished organ pipes. Anybody may spin it from this very page, and once its bonus begins the multiplier keeps swelling, from a double up to a quadruple, and never shrinks back.
A summer cloudburst over the far plots: rain drumming on a tarred shed roof, the gutter overflowing and the water butt brimming over. Each winning line is rinsed off the reels so fresh pictures can tumble into the gaps, and every extra splash in a run pays more than the one before.
Play for enjoyment, and stop once the enjoyment has gone. Decide on a time limit before you begin and take regular breaks from the plots.

The plots at Giant Marrow Plots are for grown-ups of 18 or over. The plots run on make-believe coins of no monetary value, which nobody can buy, sell, withdraw or exchange. You will not find a coin stall or a till anywhere on the allotment, the show bench awards nothing with real-world value, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.

The coin tin is shared by all three plots. Sign up for nothing and every gate on the allotment opens, while Bryony stores your coins and favourites, your level and your daily missions in the potting shed until you call again.
