Seed Insanity

Luc_of_Legends

I was trying organize my seeds and I don't how many types of seeds have two like hops and hedges. Is there a list or database or something.  I am just about to go medieval on my seed boxes.  This is nuts.  No no ..Let not bring nuts into it!

Okay found the Wiki stuff.  It does need updating on the bonsai seeds other than that its solid.
So are there two directions of each Bonsai?

Yes the Bonsai plants have 2 directions.



And you can make colors.

I knew about colored plants and the rare colors from solen quest.  However I understood colored bonsai were a glitch? I have some the colored bonsai seeds yellow and blue.

Can still make them by crossing things with prickly pears but its random.  Can get color Spider Trees, Hops, Bonsai.

They kept the bug in by popular demand but if you do not have all the colors of prickly pears you wont get those now.

Oh WOW!!!  Thank you!  I'll have to see what prickly pears I have, cool!

At the bottom of https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/gameplay/crafting/plant-growing/colored-peculiar-plants/ it lists the bonsai's that you can get from cross pollination.  The table is wrong to list just pink and plain because you get colored bonsai as well. If you cross pollinate a blue cactus with a yellow snake plant you will get a uncommon green bonsai. @Mariah you might want to update the table.

Most illuminating, thanks!

TimSt

Here are what the cactus + snake cross pollinations look like:


First row: red, yellow, blue, plain
Second row: bright red, bright yellow, bright blue
Third row: green, orange, purple
Forth row: bright green, bright orange, bright purple

Here are some other bonsai
cactus x barrel


cactus x elephant ear


cactus x palm


cactus x pampas grass


cactus x water plant


spider tree x prickly pear

spider tree x tri-barrel

There is a misunderstanding here. The table gives the bonsai types created in the cross, not the resulting colours. I will attempt to clarify the information, but it is not incorrect.

Pawain

Neat @TimSt I thought they were random.  I forgot about the tribarrel cactus, it also can get the colors.

Is there any info on crossing flowering cactus with bonsai? So far it is the only plant I've found that makes bonsai seeds when crossed with bonsai. Yet it seems to change the type of bonsai made. I recently had one white and two black bonsai seed-makers, and each time a flowering cactus was the mother or father plant. Different bonsai were used, yet both black bonsai are the same.

Look a couple of posts up.  Tim shows you every type of bonsai. Black and white are from the rare chance you get from cross breeding?  Or from Naturalist quest.

@Pawain The white and black bonsai were from cross breeding. Before switching over to produce green thorns I was in the middle of doing cross breeding to get white and black seeds for the other bonsai types.

OK that's what I thought.  I know you can get a lot of Black and White types from the quest but I don't think you can get the Bonzais from the quest.
