Notes

• Primordial Orchids can only be obtained once a day per account. There may be an additional cooldown on top of the daily reset depending on the time the Primordial Orchids were last obtained (reported to occur when last obtained within +/- 6 hours before reset, after which a separate cooldown of +/- 20-22 hours is applied).
• There are at least 48 Primordial Orchid nodes scattered around Draconis Mons.
• The Primordial Orchids outside of Draconis Mons are only available to players after planting Fire Orchid Seeds as part of the related achievements.

Anomaly:

If you do not have Heart of Thorns, you can harvest a Primordial Orchid in another player's home instance, but you will not receive Unbound Magic.

Trivia

• The Primordial Orchids appear to be modeled after Renantheras, a genus of Vandaceous orchids.
