A Spirit Tree can be grown by players from a spirit seed in one of the spirit tree patches which can be found in:

Players can unlock the ability to grow a total of four spirit trees:

It is not possible to move a spirit tree without having to replant it.

As well as the spirit tree being a destination, it can also be considered an entrance to the spirit tree network.

Growing all four spirit trees will reward the player with the Family Spirit Tree achievement, which is a requirement for the completionist cape and master quest cape.

Boosting[edit | edit source]

Spirit trees cannot be grown by using the Assist System. However, a player is able to plant the first, second, fourth tree using Farming boosts. The third spirit tree level requirement is not boostable. Players also need to have access to Prifddinas.

A relevant skill boost is only required when planting the spirit sapling in the tree patch. Using supreme growth potions and checking health can be done without boosting. The second and fourth seeds can be planted in a plant pot after level 83 without boosting to their respective required levels to plant in the patches. For the Family Spirit Tree achievement, talking to Glouron after checking four trees' health does not require a skill boost either.

The player can plant the first tree as early as level 77 with a spicy stew, which can boost 6 levels (once the appropriate quest has been completed). With the unpredictable nature of spicy stews, it is recommended instead to use a pork pie, which can boost 5 levels, at level 78. A similarly reliable method would be to wait until level 79, and then use a stranger plant. Players with a Farming level of 80 may also use garden pies for a boost of 3 levels. The Farming requirement for two trees can also be achieved with boosts.

Once fully grown and the health of the trees checked, spirit trees will appear as an option to travel to from other spirit trees.
