Finding Wild Greens in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

Finding Wild Greens in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom can be confusing since it refers to a flower called Sundelion. It is a crucial resource not only to complete the quest Gloom-Born Illness but to combat the gloom status effect.

There is an enemy type called Gloom Hands that inflicts a gloom effect that prevents you from healing all of Link’s hearts (health). You can refer to this guide on how to defeat Gloom Hands in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. This makes it imperative to collect Sundelion whenever you can during your exploration.

The quest begins when you encounter a character named Claree in the armor shop in Kakariko Village. She informs you about her grandmother’s illness and asks you to find her sister Lasli, who requests you to help her find ingredients for Sunny Veggie Porridge.

One of the ingredients required for completing the quest is Wild Greens. At this juncture, you may get confused since there is no resource named Wild Greens. In this case, Lasli refers to Sundelion, which has gloom recovery properties that can cure her grandmother.

Sundelion is a flower that can be identified by its yellow petals and black tips that can be found across any of the Sky Islands in the game. However, the chances of finding these flowers in the Hyrule Field area and Eldin Canyon are slim.

The other two ingredients required to complete the quest are Hylian Rice and Fresh Milk, both of which can be purchased from the store in Hateno Village. You can return to Lasli after cooking the Sunny Veggie Porridge and conclude the quest.

You can use Sundelion to cook items like Sunny Steamed Meat, Sunny Fried Wild Greens, and Sunny Steamed Mushrooms since each item potently cures Link from the gloom debuff.
