Once you have acquired all your seeds, you can finally start to grow your first batch of minions. Also, you need them for your Broombush Seeds. Generally, Nymeia Lily Seeds sell well, so you might want to try intercrossing them for a time to raise some funds. You can get quite a few seeds here with one node though, so if you are around the time the nodes spawn, just make your way over there. However, they are an unspoiled node, spawning at 10AM/PM Eorzean time, X:31/Y:20. Coerthan Tea Seeds are, of course, found in the Coerthan Western Highlands.

So, plan enough time for the whole thing, if you plan to grow them, too.

And of course, you cannot simply buy the seeds, you have to cross them. Growing them was quite painful though, as they take about a week to be ready for the harvest. But after three years in the game, I scored my own house and my own gardening patch. Mainly because of the awful housing system of FF14 (and let’s be honest I don’t talk to my FC enough to ask for gardening patch use). I finally have all the gardening minions!
