Limpwurt root

Limpwurt roots (Commonly referred to as, "Limpwurts" or "Limps") are used to make Strength potion at level 12 Herblore (combined with a Tarromin) and Super strength potion at level 55 Herblore (combined with a Kwuarm). As an alternative to buying them, limpwurt roots are drops from Chaos Druid Warriors, cave crawlers, cockatrice, cyclopes, hobgoblins, tribesmen, cockroach drones, turoths, and hill giants. With level 20 Dungeoneering, a dungeon can be entered that contains four limpwurt root respawns.

With level 26 Farming, players can grow their own roots in a farming patch using Limpwurt seeds.

The Apothecary in western Varrock will make a 4-dose Strength potion if you bring him Red spiders' eggs, a limpwurt root, and 5 coins. This is the only way to make a potion on free worlds.

According to the official bestiary (now removed), Hobgoblins often chew limpwurt roots, which may be a reference to the common drop of these roots for Hobgoblins. In addition, the minitrice pet use them as food, which may be related to limpwurt roots being a common drop of cockatrices. (A cockatrice head is required to acquire a minitrice as a pet.)
