How to Grow the Ash Plume in Botany Manor

The Ash Plume is one of those flowers that makes you work for its blooms. If you want the quick and easy solution for growing the Ash Plume, you’ll need to germinate it on the stove in the kitchen, then place it in the smoke room while using oak logs. But if you want🃏 a more in-depth description, rea✱d on.

First, we’ll need to collect seven clues.

• Clue 1: Dartmoor Poster. On the wall in the screens passage.
• Clue 2: Pyrophiles. On the side table in the screens passage.
• Clue 3: Seed Log. Found in the back terrace on the table with the Ash Plume seeds.
• Clue 4: Cooking Book. Found on the large table in the center of the kitchen.
• Clue 5: Dartmoor Lecture. Found in the kitchen on the table against the far wall.
• Clue 6: Poem. Found on the wall in the Servants Hall.
• Clue 7: Smoke Book. Found in the kitchen garden beside the smokery.

From clue 2, the Pyrophile book we found in the screens passage, we learn that the Ash Plume seed will only bloom when surrounded by smoke in the natural habitat. And to find out the Ash Plume’s natural habitat, you’ll need to go to the back terrace, where you can find its seeds.

If you don’t have access to the back terrace yet, go to the drawing room where you’ll find the camera. If you’ve already had the Fulguria blossom, you’ll be very well acquainted with this room. The back terrace k💧ey is in the b🔯owl behind the writing desk.

Once you have the key, head into the back terrace and down the stairs. You’ll find a small table that will have both the Ash Plume seeds and the third clue, the Seed Logs. Here, Arabella will note that she found the Ash Plume Seeds in Wistman’s Wood. This is a location that’s actually described on clue 1, the Dartmoor Poster.

Continue through the back terrace until you reach the gazebo that overlooks the river. Here, you’ll find the kitchen key in a bowl. The kitchen is opposite the back terrace door, so head back to the house. But before you do, pot an Ash Plume seed and bring it with you.

Once you’re inside the kitchen, make a beeline to the island and the cookbook. This is our fourth clue, and it tells us something significant: hard shells can be cracked by fire. Place the Ash Plume pot on the pan above the fire. This will cause the seed to germinate.

Pick up the pot and head into the closed room beside the oven. Look right and you’ll find clue six on the wall. There’s only one 🎀light 🔯that’s important to us, and it’s the first one. “The ancient oaks stand tall in Wistman’s Wood”.

Take your pot and head up the stairs in the servants’ hall to find the smoke shack on the far left and back. Place the pot on the plate in the smokery, then return to the door that leads you to the servants’ hall. Here, you’ll find wood stacked and divided by type. Select oak, on the far left. Bring it back to the smokery and place the wood in the coal-filled hole in the ground. The Ash Plume will then bloom! And while that was quite challenging, I think the Pixie Tears flower was even harder!
