Locations of Plants
The draft list of rare and magical items gives no locations. Have you ever wondered about WHERE these plants actually grow? Some areas might have them in abundance while others must import. Some magic users might even have greenhouses in which they might "grow their own". Need for some might trigger an adventure. Here's a list of some info.
