Quest:For the Coming Storm

Tunglewort grows on the rocky areas on the makeshift bridges (river level) over the Anduin in the centre of Osgiliath. You will have to visit 2 of the 3 areas marked on the map. Note that there is an invisible wall along the river at the south boundary of Osgiliath, so you cannot get to the southernmost area from South Ithilien.
Maiden's Helm is found outside of Harlond in Lossarnach. Go south through the gap in the wall near the South-gate.
Wanderbeard is against the cliff just north of the walls of Minas Tirith, as well as to the south.
Settlegang grows in the woods between the river and Parth Gladló, where Mordor Loggers can also be found.
The mortar and pestle are on a table in the same room as Galathir.

Bestowal Dialogue

'As you are aware, battle is surely upon us. There will be casualties and there will be injuries. The casualties will be unavoidable. If we are to act fast and have the proper healing salves, we should be able to abate the injuries. I have been insisting that we stock up on herbs with healing properties but I do not know anyone who is willing to leave the safety of this city on the eve of battle. If you collect these plants, then I and many soldiers to come will be in your debt.'

Galathir shows you a book containing labeled drawing of several plants of the region with healing properties:

Tunglewort, a weed that grows in Osgiliath near the Anduin. Maiden's Helm, a flower only found in the northern woods of Lossarnach. Wanderbeard, a type of moss-flower growing at the base of the mountains in Pelennor. Settlegang, a green flower-less plant found in Talath Anor.
