All Cradle Fern clue locations in Botany Manor
There are only five clues to track down to grow the Cradle Fern. These clues are littered throughout the upstairs area in Botany Manor, indicating the best way for you to care for this plant so it can blossom, similar to the Wolfglove and the Ash Plume.
You need to find these clues and their locations in Botany Manor. They should all be on the top floor of the estate.
- Bird Eggs – In the study, there are a number of bird eggs you can examine. Pick up one of them to acquire this clue.
- Fern Painting – In the corridor leading out of the Main Hall to the Master Bedroom is a fern painting with several bird eggs in the middle.
- Petition – There is a Petition you can find in the Master Bedroom, but it says you can find it in the Bell Tower. It’s on the desk, to the left of the room.
- Bird Calls – From the Corridor, make your way to the Bell Tower, and there’s a book of bird calls on the top floor.
- Letter about Melodies – In the back room, on the second floor of the Bell Tower, the letter is on the desk to the right of the door.
After you have these clues, you can utilize them to begin growing the Cradle Fern. Return to the Corridor to prepare a plant with the Cradle Fern seed, and then take it to the top of the Bell Tower. The hanging notes at the top of the Bell Tower need to be hit in the correct order for the Cradle Fern to grow.
The order you want to hit these notes should match the bird call from the Crested Owl: E, C, D, E, G, F. After you hit these notes in the correct order, the Cradle Fern should grow, and you can now proceed through to the next part of the Botany Manor story.
