List of herbs • Harvestable mobs • Herbalism quests • Techniques • Trainers • Herb bags |
In World of Warcraft, herb can mean one of three things:
- A plant or part of a plant that usually serves as an ingredient in some profession (usually Alchemy) but sometimes has some other use, as with certain quest items and the reagents for a druid's
[Rebirth] spell.
- A plant resource node which can be harvested by those with the Herbalism profession to gain the above item or items.
- The act of harvesting such a resource with Herbalism. This is used primarily in reference to "herb skinning": the harvesting of herbs from the corpses of plant monsters.
Below is a table of all nodes that those with the herbalism profession may loot, the color code at different skill levels, what they yield, and where they are primarily found.
For a listing of what herbs are in each area see Herbs by Area.

Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor
Since patch 6.0.2, most classic herb nodes are accessible to anyone even with a skill of 1. However, low-skilled players will acquire petals, stems, leaves or brambles instead of the full item.
