Golden Lotus - In Cataclysm, the mandatory ingredients for flasks were mainly volatiles, but in MoP, all flasks once again require a lotus as it was in Wrath of the Lich King. Imagine this herb as an equivalent to Wrath's Frost Lotus. It spawns in most zones of Pandaria, as it's a rare spawn node for other herbs.
