    Default Magical Plants and Where to Find them

    This is a likely complete list of all magical/potentially useful plants in game. Anything that is explicitly a growing living plant -albeit not plant creature- meets the criteria for inclusion. Slimes and Corals are excluded.

    If you're interested in optimizing horti-culture in your game, see this thread.

    Suth Greybark tree with long, soft, olive-green leaves that likes to grow horizontal to the ground and then double back at an angle. Suths that grow together tend to intertwine, forming wall-like barriers.

DC 18 appropriate Knowledge or Survival check allows differentiation between the two types. Und p. 108
    Trueroot A legendary sapling that is said to have been accidentally created during a series of experiments involving the repeated grafting of various magically enhanced roots onto treants, from which seeds were planted to create saplings that were then grafted with each other and so on. The trueroot sapling's roots are said to have pulled magical energy from an unknown place, and this magical energy could be channeled into other plants to accelerate their growth to be 10 times faster, or be channelled into spellcasters to give perfect health and “almost limitless spellcasting”. The trueroot died after small cutting were taken to propegate it and there are no known successes in recreating it. RoD p. 80

Can grow huge and many-branched, will not burn from non-magical fire, and imparts a warm clear tone to musical instruments made from it. It can replace oak or holly in any spell, and living Weirwood has fire resistance 20 (no means to preserve this quality after harvesting is known).

Effects last 1 hour. Alchemy DC 30, 200 gp Dragon 301 p. 55
    Wildwood aka. Saelas A flexible wood that can be worked into armor (counts as masterwork, -1 AC, Max dex +1, ACP -1, no ACP on hide in undergrowth, ASF -5, -25% weight compared to metal). Wildwood “heals” a point of damage over 24 hours if exposed to sunlight for at least 1 our, or, heals 5 points if also left to soak in water for 8 hours. Cost is double that of ordinary masterwork equivalent, but crating time is unaffected, and crafting requires craft (woodworking). It has hardness 6 and 10 HP/inch. RotW p. 169
    Witchweed A plants whose leaves and stalks can be refined into a paste, which is then rolled into a smokestick of sorts that creates 10 ft cube of light smoke (no concealment) that forces casters to make a concentration check as if casting defensively or loose the spell. The smoke is effective for 5 founds. Alchemy DC 20, 40 gp LoD p. 185
    Wittlewort Herb with green gossamer-like fronds which, due to its rapid growth cycle, is found onliny in the spring in temperate, subtropical or tropical areas. Deters slugs and other pests. If powdered, it can be made into Wittlewort brew, which grants those under Enchantment effects another saving throw (if the effect allowed one).Alchemy DC 15, 30 gp Dragon 301 p. 53
    Wolfsbane aka. Belladonna A creature affected with Lycanthropy can eat a spring of wolfsbane within 1 hour of affliction to try and shrug off the affliction with a DC 20 Fortitude save. Alternatively, a Heal Check can be made, and the result can be used in place of the creature's bonus to Fort saves (whichever is higher). Only one attempt can be made. Wolfsbane is also toxic, requiring a DC 13 Fort save to avoid 1d6/2d6 Str damage. Monster Manual p. 178
    Wolfweed Similar in appearance to Wolfsbane, this plant can be made into a substance called Journeyman Serum, which provides a +2 Alchemical bonus on constitution checks to avoid damage from a forces march. Alchemy DC 5, 5 gp. Dragon 301 p. 55
    Yarpick aka. Daggerthorn A type of tree that grows small fruit whoe seeds are nourishing both whole and as ground meal. LGG p. 140
    Zurkhwood Giant 30-40 ft high mushroom. Has large spores that can be eaten if prepared properly, and its hardy stalks serve as an Underdark substitute for wood. Und p. 109

    EDIT: Silver Marches p. 38-40 has a number more plants, but I don't have any more space here.

    Nice list, but I cannot help but feel like it would be alot more useful listed alphabetically in a table such as:

    Plant Name Summary Effect Source
    Arkas Grass Horse Feed Champions of Valor, pg 155
    Darkwood Special Crafting Material Dungeon Master's Guide, pg 283

    You could probably also put another column listing the price of purchasing said plant

    As of now, of the things on his list, you now have the broomshroom listed, but literally none of the others. You could at least put the wishfern on there, it's pretty cool!

    Barnacles are related to lobsters and crabs, not plants.

    Also, in the Devil Weed entry, have Dug instead of Drug.

    But great resource (especially for my alchemy using creation mantle ardent I am currently playing).

    UPDATE to this handbook, I found that Silver Marches has a whole Fauna section I overlooked, page 38 to 40 to be specific. It has a couple herbs, like the Amaunanth poison, which has a pretty high DC 19 for the 100 gp market price, dealing 2d4 HP damage initial and Unconscious as secondary.

    It also lists "Wilderness Lore" and "Knowledge (Harbalism)" skill DCs for finding herbs of varying rarities in the forest, which might be of interest if those checks could be 3.5 updated and applied to everything else on this list.

    I'm surprised this doesn't include the infusion plants... In Masters of the Wild (3.0), there are infusions (druid-like potions) which involves plants somehow, and my memory is too fuzzy to remember correctly, but there should be a whole laundry list of plants there.

    Also, don't forget Tree Stride, since it (kinda) requires specific plants.

    What a great resource. Thanks for doing this.


    Would it be possible to annotate some of these with the setting? For a lot of them, the setting is obvious from the source book, but for e.g. the Dragon article plants, it's not clear.

    Also, one minor error - the Elven Willow source book is listed as an Alchemy DC.

    Infusions do have an umbrella entry in the table, but since they come bundled with their own whole mechanic no individual entries are made. As for Tree Stride, that application is outside the scope of this handbook.

    What can I say except you're welcome.

    Dragon mag stuff is rarely setting specific, and considering that the table is already on the cusp of going over the character limit that kind of addition really isn't warranted.

    Lastly, thank you for pointing it out, I kept meaning to fix that but never got around to it, so that is now done.
