Moon Rose: A plant for a dusk garden, the ruffled, clear blue blooms of this plant unclasp their hooked cover at twilight and open their blossom to the moons, welcoming the night with their delicately-sweet fragrance and mysterious emissions of white, phosphorescent light.
Moon roses are highly sought-after garden plants, especially among the well-to-do. The sweet, floral fragrance of the flower is used widely in perfumes. Medicinally, moon rose petals have anti-depressive qualities, and so are often used as expensive additions in sedative-type medicines for the affluent.

Mossbush: This squat bush, named for its ability to cultivate its own moss, is about two cords tall and twice that in diameter. Sprouting from the main trunk are several branches, each furnished with slightly thorny yellow- spotted brown leaves. Many tendrils of brown moss wrap about the shrub, obscuring the leaves and making the plant seem as though it was shrouded in spiderwebs.

The unusually large-sized spore clusters are hanging on the ends of fragile white stalks, and appear bloated with internal pressure.
Found in the Grey Forest.

Peshek: Thickset, this brown leaf is rather sharp-looking. It is slightly curved, and must have been plucked from the stalk with some difficulty, judging from the tear at the base.
A product of the scublands, the leaves relieve thirst but at the price of heightening fevers.

Petoch: This tree is quite short, growing to just under five feet in height. Its trunk is all twisted and gnarled, and it grows at unusual angles. Brownish leaves sprout from its scraggly branches.
One of the few southlands trees, the edible petoch fruit grows in highly adverse conditions.

Pfafna: This flower is a brilliant, almost shimmering white, almost as though each petal had been dusted with some opalescent powder. Its five petals are long and tapered, making it resemble a star in shape, and it smells sweetly of citrus and mint.
Used in perfumes, candymaking and some wines, pfafna is used to sweeten many dishes.
