How to unlock the Green Thumb achievement in Spiderwick Chronicles - Definitive Guide
You have to find 4 sprites that used to be Arthur's companions and invite them to come live in the mansion garden. They will move into the empty birdhouses.
From my experience, in order for the sprites to appear, the sprites have to be caught in the following order:
1. Royal Orchid Sprite: It is just after entering the deep woods, through the hole. (use a faerie fruit to catch it if you are having trouble getting any of the sprites to get within catching distance)
2. Flower Head Sprite: In the same spot as the first one, it will appear after you caught the previous one. You may want to leave the area and re-enter to get this one to spawn.
3. Flower Winged Sprite: This one is on the rock in the tunnels, where you have to use Simon to throw a gobstone at the hanging crystal to get the bridge to appear. (This is where you found / find the metal cricket) Again, use a faerie fruit to catch it.
4. Leatherwing Sprite: After catching the other 3 sprites, A final lantern will appear in the quarry, on the tree. Smash it with a gobstone and catch the Sprite down by the water. Use a faerie fruit if necessary.
Make sure you use their powers after catching them, this will cause them to move into the birdhouses at the mansion. Head back to the mansion and go talk to each one of them. They will each reward you with one faerie fruit. After the last one has been spoken to the achievement will unlock.
