Dawdling Hellebore for Mary: check the waterfall seed seller

October 3 community seed lead; stock caveat retained · Sources checked October 3, 2026

The short answer

For the missing Dawdling Hellebore ingredient in Mary’s potion task, check the seed seller behind the waterfall if the town-square seller does not have it, then grow the plant. The original questioner thanked the helper and said they had missed it. The helper phrases the planting advice as a recollection.

Check the seed packet rather than a finished potion

  1. Look for the named seed at the town-square seed seller.
  2. If it is missing there, check the seed seller behind the waterfall.
  3. Read the packet’s planting requirements and grow it in a suitable plot. Use the planting steps if equipping the packet does nothing.
  4. Keep the harvested Dawdling Hellebore for the ingredient named in your current task.

What if neither seller has the seeds?

A later player says the waterfall seller has no stock and asks whether Winter is required; that question has no answer in the reviewed thread. We cannot promise a season, refresh day or universal stock. This guide provides the successful vendor lead, not the complete ancient potion-maker summoning recipe. The waterfall-merchant notes for Chamomile describe the same seller lead, but their out-of-season success does not establish Hellebore stock.
