A seed.

Seeds are small items that can be used for growing Plants via Gardening. They each weigh one stone and cannot be stacked. Seeds are initially gained as loot from certain creatures, but most varieties are grown by breeding multiple generations of plants.


Breedable Plants

Certain creatures drop Plain, Red, Blue or Yellow seeds. Seeds obtained via combat always produce plants of one of three varieties:

  • Fern.png Ferns
  • Campion Flowers.png Campion Flowers
  • Tribarrel Cactus.png Tribarrel Cacti

Such seeds will be named according to their color (eg "Red Seed"), however if a plant is grown and then bred with itself it will produce descriptive seeds of the same type (eg "Red Tribarrel Cactus Seed").

Breeding different combinations of these seeds together can produce more colors and plant varieties. Any plant that provides seeds can produce a total of eight over it's lifetime.

The initial starting seeds are dropped by:


Plant Breeding Chart

ToDo: Details on what happens when you cross plant X with plant Y. Check the chart on Stratics for now, it's great. :)


Resource Growing Plants

Some plants produce resources which can be harvested via the Plant Resource GUMP. Up to eight units can be harvested from any given plant.


Green Thorns, which produce various random effects, are produced by Bright Green plants of these types:

  • Snake Plant.png Snake Plants
  • Barrel Cactus.png Barrel Cacti


Red Leaves, which lock the contents of books, are produced by Bright Red plants of these types:

  • Ponytail Palm.png Ponytail Palms
  • Elephant Ear Plant.png Elephant Ear Plants
  • Century Plant.png Century Plants


Orange Petals, which provide high levels of poison resistance, are produced by Bright Orange plants of these types:

  • Pampas Grass.png Pampas Grasses
  • Poppies.png Poppies
  • Bulrushes.png Bulrushes


Cocoa Pulp, which is used as a Cooking ingredient, is produced by Cocoa Trees.


Mutant Plants

Any plant that can produce seeds (aside from the Cocoa Tree) has a chance of producing black or white "Mutants" instead of the color they normally would. Such seeds are very rare.

Aqua, Pink, Magenta and Fire Red seeds can be obtained by completing the Naturalist Quest.

Plants grown from Mutant seeds cannot be bred and will not produce more seeds.


Bonsai Plants

With the advent of Ultima Online: Samurai Empire, certain creatures in the Tokuno Islands have a chance of dropping special Bonsai seeds. There are five varieties:

  • Common Bonsai Tree.png Common Bonsai Tree
  • Uncommon Bonsai Tree.png Uncommon Bonsai Tree
  • Rare Bonsai Tree.png Rare Bonsai Tree
  • Exotic Bonsai Tree.png Exotic Bonsai Tree
  • Exceptional Bonsai Tree.png Exceptional Bonsai Tree

Similar to mutants, Bonsai cannot be bred to produce more seeds.

All forms are dropped by:


Peculiar Plants

Peculiar seeds began appearing with Publish 55 and can grow 15 new plant varieties (one of which comes in two facings, for a total of 16). These plants cannot be cross-pollinated and do not produce new seeds nor resources. Instead, they are only dropped by certain monsters.

It was initially decided that no coloured Peculiar plants would be available, but due to a bug which caused the Naturalist Quest to produce nothing but coloured Peculiar Cactus plants, Publish 56 will make both standard and peculiar plants available from the same quest.

The seeds are divided into four groups of four which are each dropped by three monsters. For example, if you want to get a twisted Cypress Tree you must kill monsters from the second group. As the seeds are unlabeled you've no way of knowing if you've got the correct type until the plant reaches the seventh stage of growth - assuming you harvested from the correct monster, you have a 25% chance of any given seed producing the species of plant you're after.

Some images are in thumbnail form, click to see full sized versions.

Cocoa Trees (Fragrant Seeds)

Fragrants seeds began appearing with Publish 55 and are used to grow the Cocoa Tree, which in turn can not be cross-pollinated.

Whenever a creature would drop a Peculiar seed, there is a chance a Fragrant seed will be dropped instead. They are hence collected from the same creatures, but at a lower drop rate. However, in addition to Cocoa Pulp Cocoa Trees produce more seeds of the same variety (labeled as Cocoa Tree Seeds).


Ungrowable Plants

Some plants are available as decorative items outside of the Gardening system.
