Flora of Mistfen Mire

Appleleaf: These low-growing plants have leaves that grow in groups of four and taste of slightly bitter apples when eaten. Appleleaf grows all over within the forests of Mistfen Mire and southern Kingdom of Tel Morath.   Blackscour:A black-headed fungus that tastes hard, bitter, and sharp. It grows in the water and causes blackscour taint if any part of it, including its spores, are consumed (usually by drinking contaminated water). Blackscour is not native to the region and was only recently introduced to Mistfen Mire .   Dowmberries: Although the plants that bear them contain massive thorns, dowmberries remain a popular desert treat when in season in late summer and early autumn. Dowmberries grow best in arid climates and grow all over the eastern side of Invertock Barrow and Lower Rendlea.   Elderwood Moss: This semi-magical moss only grows on the oldest tree in a forest. As such, two known patches exist in Mistfen Mire: one upon the forest elder in Willrend Forest and another in Blackmire Trees. Elderwood moss, when prepared correctly, acts as a strong decongestant. Some people claim that, when prepared incorrectly, elderwood moss causes premature aging.   Glowmold: As its name implies, glowmold glows. Rather brightly, in fact. Glowmold grows very slowly on the undersides of igneous rocks, and the largest concentrations of this useful mold live for centuries under stones too large to easily flip or roll over. Smaller finds provide as much light as a torch. Regardless of the size of the moss colony, picked glowmold glows for 3 days once picked.   Ironbloom Mushrooms: These stunty fungi only grow in dark places thick with metal. The diets of Greyhammer Peak dwarves consist heavily of ironbloom mushrooms, mainly because the plants grow naturally in and around dwarven forges. Protein-rich ironbloom mushrooms bear a slight salty taste but otherwise contain no flavor of their own, making them excellent additions to many dwarven meals.   Paueliel Trees: These silver-barked softwoods grow to immense heights, but never spread to more than a few feet in diameter. Lumberjacks claim paueliel trees are somehow connected with elves and give copses of them wide berth when logging.   Rat’s Tail: When pickled, this exceedingly salty root acts as a mild analgesic. Used raw, rat’s tail gives a strong salty flavor to whatever dish it is added to. Many of the poor residents in Mistfen Mire use rat’s tail to flavor their food, as salt remains out of the price range of most.
