25 Farming (not boostable) and completion of Creature of Fenkenstrain.
02How do I activate the Ring of Charos?
Complete the quest and throw the ring down the Edgeville well when prompted; you fish it back out and keep it as the Ring of Charos(a).
03Do my crops need compost?
Gardeners refuse to watch over the quest patches, so using compost on every patch is strongly recommended to improve survival.
04How long does Garden of Tranquillity take?
It is an Intermediate, Long quest, largely because growing the onions and cabbages takes about 40 minutes and the marigolds about 20 minutes, though the final planting cannot die.
05Is Garden of Tranquillity worth it for ironmen?
The activated Ring of Charos is the main draw, as it makes many NPCs charge less or offer extra options. Ironmen can save inventory space by making rune dust beforehand and can buy all needed seeds from Olivia in Draynor.

It is required for Swan Song, Defender of Varrock and a Medium Varrock Diary task, and gives the Ring of Charos(a), a 4-dose compost potion and an agility shortcut to the palace garden.

You grow onions and cabbages in both allotments and marigolds, then collect orchid, snowdrop and delphinium seeds from the three gardeners. Use compost on every patch since gardeners will not watch them.
