Definition
A herb garden represents an area of land where herbs grow. A herb garden can be of almost any size - it could be a tiny personal garden in an Urizen spire, meticulously tended and cared for, or it could be a vast forest in Wintermark or Varushka that a character scours in search of wild herbs.
Production
A herb garden produces 6 drams of true vervain, 2 drams of cerulean mazzarine, 2 drams of bladeroot, 2 drams of imperial roseweald, and 2 drams of marrowort.
Downtime Options
It is possible to obtain a higher yield from a herb garden. You may spend 6 crowns to have the herb garden produce an additional 3 true vervain, 1 cerulean mazzarine, 1 Imperial roseweald, 1 bladeroot and 1 marrowort in that season.
Upgrades
A herb garden can be upgraded using weirwood obtained from the Bourse. Each time a herb garden is upgraded, the owner chooses a single herb from the list. The herb garden produces 2 additional drams of that herb from then on.
To upgrade a herb garden requires Imperial wains of weirwood equal to the level the herb garden is being upgraded to. So the first upgrade of a starting level 1 herb garden costs 2 Imperial wains of weirwood, from 2 to 3 costs 3 Imperial wains, etc.
The Feldspar Distillery in Skarsind allows herb gardens owned by Imperial Orcs to be upgraded to produce a single dram of realmsroot each season rather than one of the standard herbs.
Rituals
The table below shows a list of the rituals in Imperial lore which can affect the production of a herb garden.
| Ritual | Effect | Realm | Magnitude |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ruthless Vigilance, Healthy Crop | Produces an additional 2 drams of each herb over the next season | Winter | 8 |
| Withering Touch of Frost | Reduces production by a quarter for a year | Winter | 6 |
| Anathemic Call of Bug and Briar | Reduces production by a half for a year | Spring | 16 |
| Vale of Shadows | Protects the resource from suffering the conquered territory penalty for a year | Night | 20 |
| Like Water Through Your Fingers | Reduces production by three quarters for a year | Autumn | 30 |
| Winter's Ghosts(1) | Reduces production by 2 true vervain over the next season | Winter | 50 |
