Fireblossom Seeds

Fireblossom Seeds can be found when harvesting Fireblossom, but only when the plant is in lava. Only a blooming Fireblossom plant will yield seeds when harvested, and the only way to make a Fireblossom plant bloom is to pour lava on it. The easiest way to do this when attempting to procure your initial seeds out in the Underworld is to place blocks two high on either side of the plant and then pour a Lava Bucket into the gap, thus submerging the Fireblossom in lava. Now, when you harvest the Fireblossom, it will also drop Fireblossom Seeds.

Fireblossom Seeds can be placed in empty Clay Pots or on Ash Blocks and grown into additional, harvestable Fireblossom. Potted Fireblossom will grow anywhere, not just in the Underworld, but will only yield seeds if you submerge the plant in lava.

Like the Fireblossom, this item is immune to lava despite not being of blue quality.

It is not possible to plant a Fireblossom seed in a pot that is submerged in lava. It is currently unknown whether or not this is intended or is a bug. This breaks the standard Fireblossom farm. A potential work around is to use a bucket to add exactly the amount of lava that is needed to submerge the plants, then upon harvesting, remove one bucket of lava, plant the seed, then put the lava back in again.
