I found no references on that subject, I'm a bit surprised.

I'm currently paying respects daily with two different chars and it's now pretty obvious to me that the flower type dictates the skill bonus that you get.
(when said skill is maxed I guess it's then random if you keep using the same flower, but I'm not interested in that case)

So far I found that Devil's Worth gives nPhy and Iris Prismatica gives Thread & Needle.
Someone knows the other associations ? (I'm looking for C&D mainly, and Stocks)

[Edit: Here is the complete list]

Code: Select all

Arts & Crafts ---------- Shooting Star
Cloak & Dagger ---------
Faith & Wisdom --------- Red Rose
Flora & Fauna ---------- Spring Beauty
Hammer & Nail ---------- Turks Cap
Hunting & Hideworking -- Trout Lilly
Law & Lore ------------- Lady's Slipper
Mines & Mountains ------ Red Trillium
Herbs & Sprouts --------
Sparks & Embers -------- Flame Azalea
Stocks & Cultivars ----- Mayapple
Sugar & Spice ---------- Wild Columbine
Thread & Needle -------- Iris Prismatica
Natural Philosophy ----- Devil's Wort
Perennial Philosophy ---

Those are the secondary skills you get from studding those flowers, so try Mayapple for S&C.

I'll probably try Mayapple tomorrow so
But I've a doubt really. Devil's Wort is the only flower is C&D on it but paying respects with it doesn't give C&D

I was creating a chart on this before I took a break:



Its not finished, maybe someone else can finish it, but flowers that give more of a certain skill will usually give that dead char that stat.

Great !
Let me add this to the OP. Thanks much for sharing

For mines & mountains I used that flower from spider biome - with red and green petals. Forgot its name

Salem Wiki: Red_Trillium I guess

Shooting Star --- Arts n Crafts

I finally tried a Trout Lilly and it gives Hunting.
As DarkNacht said it's based on the prof on the flower. So Mayapple will probably give Stocks and Spring Beauty flora or herbs.

But there is an issue : there are not enough flower types to cover the 15 proficiencies.
Not all the flowers from "Any Flower" are working, far from it.
Those can't be used to pay respect : Frost Flower, Sunnyflower (Proud or not), Dehydrated Rose, Daisy, Wild Garlic, Flower arrangement, even tried Oakworth and god knows what :p

So I've no clue which flowers to try for 3 profs : Cloak, pPhy and either Herbs or Flora.

Have you tried these?

Lilypad Bulb, Milkweed Roots, Peyote Cactus, Honeysuckle Kudzu, Spring Beauty, Mayapple.
