Maidenlock is a Gillfruit that only grows on the plains of southern Ustmaar, southwestern Maidenfell, and northwestern Eastcharm. While it is partially grown for its large, bulbous roots, it is mainly cultivated for its potent medicinal properties. Its pollen is a proven and powerful aphrodisiac and the stems have repeatedly been shown to increase fertility, sometimes by as much as 300%. It is widely sought after and hugely expensive in many of the regions where it cannot be grown locally.
