Seeds

Not to be confused with the item: Seed

Seeds are usable items that, depending on the type, can be placed on various surfaces (Grass, Corruption, Crimson, Mud, Sand, Ebonstone, Crimstone, Clay Pots) and will cause a type of grass or plant to grow.

Seeds are acquired as a drop whenever you harvest a plant during your adventures or from a pot (with the exception of Grass Seeds, which are purchasable from the Dryad).
