I'm following the story line. and now I got to make Tropical Specimen Pack. It appears, the recipe to make one is each one of 'grass rope', 'coral pieces', 'crownfish', 'panther hide', 'purple orchid' and 'amber orchid'. I gathered all of them except for the orchids. I found the orchid and tried to root them. but It says I only can get 2 grass not the actual orchid. now I'm stuck on the story line...
edit... Oh. my mistake. I just found out that I should use the knife to get wholesome plant... think it's the new features... haha.
