Garden Essences
From MHWiki
This tiny plant holds something mysterious inside - an energy so powerful that it could change the world, if only it were harnessed correctly.
Surely, there must be some way to intensify and combine that energy into something more powerful.
Garden Essences are used with the Book of Living Recipes to craft more powerful Essences and other items. Several Minigames exist to allow a hunter to collect essences at a faster rate. While essences can be obtained by opening a Bag of Living Essences, the estimated contents (according to horntracker) average out to a slower rate than what is possible by hunting in the Living Garden areas.
