Heart of the Grove Harvest encounter

Sacred Blossom is a Map Fragment. It is for the harvest “Heart of the Grove” encounter, which can randomly drop from tier 4 harvest bosses.

Harvest Tier 4 Bosses

The Heart of the Grove encounter is now a map fragment( Sacred Blossom) that sometimes drops from Tier 4 Harvest bosses, instead of randomly appearing in place of a normal Harvest grove. This allows you to trade the encounter if you don’t feel up to it, and it means that finding The Heart of the Grove when you are in a map with difficult mods doesn’t lead to an impossible encounter.

Tier	Item	Lvl
4	Ersi, Mother of Thorns #15	75
4	Namharim, Born of Night #31	100
4	Janaar, the Omen #47	80

During Harvest league, the player witnessed the NPC Oshabi turns into the Heart of the Grove after harvesting a T4 seed. The heart has a counter to indicate that how many harvest is needed to trigger the boss fight. This mechanic then removed.

Since version 3.13.0, the player still witnessed Oshabi turns into the Heart of the Grove, but the actual boss fight was spawned by random. Since version 3.14.0, the boss fight is triggered by the player using the map fragments dropped by T4 harvest monster: Ersi, Mother of Thorns; Janaar, the Omen or Namharim, Born of Night.

Heart of the Grove Drops

After PoE version 3.11.1: the Heart of the Grove monsters and bosses now have a chance based on their rarity, with higher-tier seeds having a higher chance, to drop a new plantable "seed". This can be placed in the Sacred Grove and will affect planted seeds around it, granting nearby seeds additional properties on being Harvested.

Heart of the Grove Growth Cycles

It requires 100 cycles to grow, and must be done in maps of zone level 78 or higher.

Avatar of the Grove

Oshabi, Avatar of the Grove is the boss of Heart of the Grove. Once it finishes growing, you can fight her.

The drop table has been changed since its original encounter in Harvest League, now that you can no longer obtain Seed Enhancers.

As of now, the loot table consists of one Harvest-exclusive unique:

• Witchhunter's Judgment
• Law of the Wilds
• Abhorrent Interrogation
• Forbidden Shako

and a random combination of:

• Infused Beachheads
• Lures
• Dedication to the Goddess
• Tribute to the Goddess
• Gift to the Goddess
• Infused Engineer's Orb
• Facetor's Lenses
• Winged Scarabs (unconfirmed)

Avatar of the Grove encounters statistics

encounters started	94,000
encounters completed	84,379

According to the GGG's statistics, fighting Avatar of the Grove is not difficult. As you can see, just shy of 90% of encounters that were started were successfully completed; a fairly high success rate for a new boss. There's no question that this boss was considered to be on the easier side among endgame bosses, and the statistics seem to agree with that sentiment.
