Ginseng RDR2 locations (and more!)

The best Alaskan Ginseng location is hands down, a farm northwest of Window Rock. The farm is one of the most popular locations and is quite easy to reach by crossing the river north of Valentine and then traveling northeast. As far as Alaskan Ginseng locations go, this one is definitely the best as it has multiple plants growing only a few steps from each other.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 American Ginseng Location?

The best American Ginseng location is found due north of Lagras and east of Emerald Ranch. Granted, American Ginseng locations aren't packed as those of its Alaskan cousin, but they can still be found within walking distance from one another.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Bay Bolete Location?

Bay Bolete location is somewhat elusive if you are looking for it by roaming about. But the good news is, there are some Bay Bolete locations that are relatively close to one another. To reach those Bay Bolete spawn points travel to Manzanita Post and then head north-east towards Aurora Basin.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Blackberry Location?

Honestly, the number of Red Dead Blackberry locations is surprisingly low. After all, it's quite a common type of berry, right? Saying that, most Blackberry locations can be found around West Elizabeth and the Dakota River. You can travel to Manzanita Post, then head west or south-west.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Black Currant Location?

Thanks to Black Currant locations it is probably the easiest of the plants to find. There are two tightly packed Black Currant locations - one directly northwest of Tumbleweed and one directly northeast of it. Finding it should be super easy, barely an inconvenience!

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Burdock Root Location?

Burdock Root locations aren't exactly highly sought-after, primarily because there are so many of them in the game. But the best Burdock Root location to get a lot of it in a short time is between two bends of the Dakota River southwest of Valentine.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Chanterelle Location?

This is one very sneaky shroom. Chanterelle locations are very sparse. However, if you head to Braithwaite Manor and make your way to the south of it you'll find the best Chanterelle location there is, which is especially handy if you need a lot of them.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Common Bulrush Location?

Common Bulrush locations are exactly that - common. But don't worry, that doesn't mean I haven't prepared an amazing Bulrush location for all your inexplicable Common Bulrush needs. You can find Common Bulrush between the bends of the Dakota River found south of Valentine.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Creeping Thyme Location?

Now here is one you can never have enough of. Creeping Thyme locations are plentiful but most of them have only a couple of plants to pick. However, there is one Creeping Thyme location that features plenty of spots and that's in The Heartlands. The Heartlands can be found southeast of Valentine or northwest of Rhodes.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Desert Sage Location?

Unsurprisingly, the best Desert Sage location is in the desert. All the way to the far western corner of the map to be precise. If you go a little bit east from Tumbleweed you will find plenty of Desert Sage locations just waiting for you to pick them. Or eat them if that's what you fancy.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 English Mace Location?

Don't worry, the English Mace location isn't in England. But that would make it the most unique of Red Dead plant locations. Anyway, you can find a whole bunch of English Mace locations west of Fort Mercer. The easiest way to reach it is by traveling to Armadillo and heading southwest.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Evergreen Huckleberry Location?

To find the best Evergreen Huckleberry location we will once again head to one of the most popular locations, Braithwaite Manor. And then just a bit more south. This is hands-down the best possible Evergreen Huckleberry location in the entire game if you're looking to gather plenty of them quickly.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Golden Currant Location?

Unfortunately, Golden Currant isn't as expensive as its name might imply. However, Golden Currant locations are quite easy to find in the southern part of the map. But this isn't just any RDR2 plant location guide. This is an efficient RDR2 location guide. That's why, to find the most Golden Currant locations, you'll want to head just north of Blackwater.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Hummingbird Sage Location?

Once again we're heading to Braithwaite Manor. As you might have figured out by now this is one of the prime locations to find RDR2 plant and herb locations. Of course, this is also the case for finding Hummingbird Sage locations which are all nicely shown on the map below.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Indian Tobacco Location?

The best Indian Tobacco location is quite a polluted one. It seems to grow exceptionally well around the Heartland Oil Fields which are located east of Valentine. I guess you should be careful not to light any matches around Indian Tobacco locations.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Milkweed Location?

Milkweed is a popular plant in RDR2, especially as it can be used to refill your Health Core, so here's how to find milkweed with the Milkweed location guide! Milkweed can be identified by the large stems and leaves, and clusters of lilac flowers. To find milkweed locations look out for water such as river banks, particularly nearby Bayou Nwa, and also near lakes. Indeed, as per this map, you can find milkweed around the Southfield Flats found directly north of Rhodes. So, if you need to refill your Health Core slightly, look out for large stems, lilac flowers, and great bodies of water, and chances are you'll find milkweed locations!

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Oleander Sage Location?

Oleander Sage locations are quite rare but they tend to do quite well near rivers in swampy areas. So if you're looking for a prime Oleander Sage location I suggest you travel to Lagras and then head south-west along the coast.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Oregano Location?

Oregano is a wonderful spice that is also fairly common in RDR2. However, the best Oregano locations are the ones that are easiest to get to. So in order to find yourself a premium Oregano location all you have to do is travel to Blackwater and then search the fields south of it.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Parasol Mushroom Location?

Parasol Mushroom locations are quite sparse, but there is an excellent one I'm going to share with you today. I'd say to keep it a secret, but then again, this is a public post. This very special Parasol Mushroom location is located just south of Armadillo. Actually, it's several Parasol Mushroom locations but they're all pretty much in the same field.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Prairie Poppy Location?

Remember that very special field south of Armadillo from about two sentences ago? Well, as it turns out it is also a great place to find a whole bunch of Prairie Poppy locations. If you're looking to farm a large number of them, then this is the Prairie Poppy location for you.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Ram’s Head Location?

Ram's Head locations will take you all the way to the northeastern corner of the map. The best way to reach Ram's Head location is to travel to Annesburg and then either follow the road or the railroad heading north. Fair warning, the terrain might be tricky and make the Ram's Head locations hard to spot. See, it's the tips like this that make this the best RDR2 plant and herb location guide on the internet.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Raspberry Location?

Once again, RDR2 plant and herb locations are quite stingy when it comes to berries. Raspberry locations are no different. However, the good news is that you can find a bunch of Raspberry locations along the Little Creek River located north of Strawberry. Speaking of which, why aren't strawberries an available plant in this game?

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Red Sage Location?

Apparently, this plant is a bit of a train aficionado. Just look at the Red Sage locations on the map down below! Well, at least that's good news for you as all you have to do to find Red Sage locations is to travel to Tumbleweed and then head east until you see a bunch of train tracks.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Vanilla Flower Location?

Did you know Vanilla Flowers grow in swamps? Me neither. At least that's how it is according to RDR2. If you're looking for a Vanilla Flower location I'm afraid you'll need to be prepared to fight some alligators for it. However, most of the Vanilla Flower locations are directly north of Lagras, so at least it won't be a long walk back to safety once you lose a leg.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Violet Snowdrop Location?

Violet Snowdrop locations (and let's take a moment to appreciate how precious that name is) are mostly scattered over the Cumberland Forest northeast of Valentine. I know it might not seem like much when you look at the map, but trust me, this is the best Violet Snowdrop location.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Wild Carrot Location?

Why are you looking up Wild Carrot locations? Given the number of Wild Carrot locations in the game, they're essentially a weed! Or at the least a dominant specie of RDR2 plants. But if you for some reason really need directions to the best Wild Carrot location I'm here to tell you it's south of Armadillo.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Wild Feverfew Location?

Wild Feverfew location is probably the closest one to a town than any of the other plants in this RDR2 plant and herb location guide. You can find a ton of Wild Feverfew locations just northeast of Armadillo. Literally on the outskirts. You'll be so close you'll still be able to hear drunken arguments in the local saloon.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Wild Mint Location?

Wild Mint locations are always near water and can be found on pretty much any part of the map. However, the best Wild Mint location is north and northwest of Blackwater. I recommend you follow the south bank of the Upper Montana River and quite soon you'll be swimming in minty freshness.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Wintergreen Berry Location?

Wintergreen Berry locations are, unsurprisingly, mostly found in the northern parts of the map. However, the best Wintergreen Berry locations you can find are northwest of Annesburg. Especially on the western side of the river, just past the Roanoke Valley.

What is the Best Red Dead Redemption 2 Yarrow Location?

Yarrow locations aren't nearly as mysterious as they would like to be. At least that's what I like to believe. If you want a nice spot with plenty of Yarrow locations just travel to Rhodes and then head south-east. Most of them will be found in the field with the railroad cutting through it.

And that's it for our RDR2 Milkweed location guide including all RDR2 plants and milkweed locations! Good luck with your daily challenges and crafting, and we hope you find milkweed!
