An exotic seed that is very demanding on its growing conditions. There's a time and place for everything...

-Scrapbook Description

Surprising Seeds can be found in Sunken Chests. The chance to find a Surprising Seed in Sunken Chest is 10% at day 1. It will gradually increase as the day count increases, up to 60% chance at day 150.

The seeds have two conditions, and in order for them to grow into a sapling, one of them must be met. Each seed has a turf it needs to be placed on and a season during which it grows. Gloomthorns will grow in these conditions: Winter or Marsh Turf. Sproutrocks will grow in these conditions: Summer or Rocky Turf. Examining a planted Surprising Seed will show dialogue depending on whether the seed is growing or not in its current conditions, allowing the player to discern which seed they have found. When a seed meets the required condition, it will grow after 3 - 7 days.

Once the seed has sprouted into a sapling, it requires both of the conditions to be met. If met, the sapling will turn into a fully grown tree after 8-12 days. The growth time from seed to sapling and from sapling to fully grown tree is not a fixed number. It is randomized every time it is planted.

Fully grown Gloomthorn and Sproutrock will produce their fruits every 12 to 25 days. The timer for regrowth is set upon creation of the seed and will stay the same throughout its lifetime and every harvest. Regrowing the tree will not change its regrowth timer. The regrowth timer will be reduced by 25% in Spring.
