I believe the Orchids have 100% chance to drop from the ones you plant around the map for the Kudzu collection, but if I try to get the daily Orchid gather for Draconis Mons actually in the map, it usually takes me at least eight nodes to get the five Orchids, and my drop luck has sometimes been bad enough to end up leaving the map to hit my home instance or one of the legendary collection patches to finish it.

I have, at times, received no Fire Orchids from the ones planted near the garden in Dry Top.

[Pifil.5193]

I've received none from the ones by Melandru's temple a couple of days ago.

Clearly, Fire Orchids are tricksy hobbitses. I haven't been back to the group in Cursed Shore lately--do you still have to chop those in a particular order, or has that bug been fixed?
