How to Obtain and Use Poppy in Hades 2?

Poppy is a valuable resource in Hades 2, used to create powerful Aspects and Incantations. Here’s a guide on how to get and use Poppy in Hades 2.

How to Get Poppy Seeds?

To begin your quest for Poppy, you must first obtain Poppy seeds. These seeds can be found in Tartarus, the fourth and final region of the underworld. However, reaching Tartarus is no easy feat and requires you to defeat several challenging bosses along the way:

1.Hecate in Erebus

2.Scylla and the Sirens in Oceanus

3.Cerberus in The Fields of Mourning

After defeating Cerberus, you will gain access to Tartarus, where you can find Poppy seeds in digging spots. To dig up these seeds, you will need a Silver Spade, which can be crafted at the Crossroads' Cauldron using the Night’s Craftwork Incantation and 10x Silver.

Planting and Harvesting Poppy

Once you have acquired Poppy seeds, return to the Crossroads and plant them in the Soil Plots using the Flourishing Soil Incantation. It will take several encounters before the seeds are fully grown and ready for harvesting. It's important to note that Poppy is one of the more challenging resources to obtain and requires patience and persistence.
