Can't find holt bloom

[emitfudd]

I can't progress in Sylvan's Cradle until I find holt bloom to craft a certain potion. Anybody know where to find it?

Hmm usually around Ribbon wood stands. You will need an improved sickle to harvest it though?

I have a refined sickle. Just can't find it. The only google search result is a reddit post with a video showing it at the top of the map.

Its all over the map (Or it was on mine). Look for some Ribbon wood trees should have 2-6 plants at them base of it:

Have you watched this already I take it?

Every biome has random patches of higher tier spawns. What I do is look in the distance and look for trees that are either colored differently or look entirely different from the rest. That's a patch of Tier 2 wood and fabrics.

This is easier in deserts due to the low amount of trees.

Look for groves of trees that look different from anything else in the forest (only found in forest realms I think). These trees look like they have vines twisted in the with the bark and there is a "tuft" at the top. Then look for bushes of blueberry/barberry and interspersed within the bushes and trees are other plants usually in groups if 1-3 that you need to sickle to harvest. You have to have an appropriate level of sickle to harvest them (if you hover the plant it will have a number that your sickle rating must exceed). There are no map markers to point them out so just wander around as they are usually all over the place. I think Herbarium forest might have more, or at least boost the volume when you harvest.

Desert = Cinder Stand/Swamp=Titania's Crown/Forest=Holt Bloom

if you go towards the unusual colourful trees and look at the ground plants below them them one type will require a sickle to collect them all the others are just pick up by hand the ones you need a sickle for are hold bloom they look significantly different too
