[edit] Notes
- The collector Bariel Darkroot trades 5 Alpine Seeds for items that sell for 125
to a merchant. This provides a return that is over three times more than just selling the trophies by themselves.
- This item has been required by Imperial Chef Reun for his salad at the Canthan New Year festival.
- It is easily farmed in the Frozen Forest from Pinesoul which are plentiful on the road between the Copperhammer Mines and the Iron Mines of Moladune.
- It can be farmed by repeating the Hungry Devourer quest in Deldrimor Bowl where the two Succulent Juniper groups usually drop 2 seeds each, in addition to the Succulent Juniper Meat that they drop as part of the quest.
