Ok this herb does not have its own plant, though you can find it

Mushroom [245] - (used for Elixir of

and Limited Invulnerability Potion)
Found in:
You will very rarely find a Ghost Mushroom plant, a few of them grow in the Hinterlands in the north east before crossing the river in a
cave, also Maraudon has some. I got this herb mostly from hunting
monsters. They drop from Elemental type of mobs like Thistleshrub
Drew Collectors in Tanaris or Tar Lords/Bloodpetal Thresters/Tar
Creepers in Un'Goro Crater. Some Ghost Mushrooms can be found in east DM as well.
- Gromsblood

soil.

Sansam [260] - (used for Major Healing
Potion)

Un'Goro Crater. While running around at the edge of the zone, you
can find Golden Sansam (along with Mountain Silversage for Major
Healing Potions), in shadowy places next to trees and generally in
grass.
- Dreamfoil
[270] - (used for Elixir of the Sages, Flask of Distilled
Wisdom, Greater Arcane Protection Potion, Greater Fire Protection
Potion, Greater Frost Protection Potion, Greater Shadow Protection
Potion and Major Mana Potion)
Found in: Two nice places for this plant are definately Un'Goro Crater and Azshara, in both places you can run around on your horse/kodo all over the whole zone, you will find not only Dreamfoil but most of the high level herbs you need. Also Azshara seems one of the zones less trafficked, so you will most likely find more Dreamfoil there than in Un'Goro crater, but Un'Goro is still the best place.
Dreamfoil grows all over the zone in grass.
- Mountain
Silversage [280] - (used for Elixir of
Mongoose, Flask of Chromatic Resistance, Major Healing Potion)Found
in: Extremely important and largely used herb (crit potion for rogues and major healing potions), best place to search for it is Un'Goro Crater imo. Run along the edge of the zone as the plant
grows on the highest possible (climbable) mountains.
- Plaguebloom
[285] - (used for Elixir of Brute Force, Mongoose Potion,
Elixir of the Sages and Purification Potion)
Found in:
Best and easiest place for this is Eastern Plaguelands. Grows all
over the zone, mostly in the south-east corner though.

Distilled Wisdom, Major Mana Potion and Purification Potion)

- Black Lotus [300]
- (used for Flask of Chromatic Resistance, and Flask of Distilled
Wisdom)
Found in: Ok this is the rarest plant
ever, places it has been picked up so far are Eastern Plaguelands, Winterspring and Burning Steppes. Another good spot for this herb is the arena in Dire Maul, (you need a group for this) depending on if a rare named is up there spawn 2 Black Lotuses in the arena and can be harvested, you need to kill the named though which takes about a full group. Black Lotus can also be found in Alterac Valley and Silithus.
