Root Strengthener Tonic: where to find Ruby Bells and Frostleaf
A reply to a player searching for both ingredients says Ruby Bells and Frostleaf can be gathered in Ochre Woods or just east of Marywild Mansion, around its fast-travel point if you have unlocked it. This is a gathering lead for Root Strengthener Tonic, not an instruction to buy a finished potion.

Two places to search
- Ochre Woods: inspect the gatherable plants in the woods. If the absent ferry blocks you, follow the Ferry Girl sign-trigger answer.
- East of Marywild Mansion: the reply places both ingredients near the fast-travel area. A previously unlocked travel point is a landmark, not a stated requirement to gather them.
Check the named ingredients before brewing
Read the picked-up item names and your current recipe. The thread supplies no ingredient quantities, exact plant coordinates, seasonal availability or respawn timer. If you reach the named area but cannot find one plant, keep the missing ingredient and your current season for the next location report; do not substitute another herb based only on its colour.
