TheWoWDBImmediately after picking up this quest, you receive the Temporal Leaves item (above, blue/green herb looking thing)from Warden Casad, the questgiver. Go over to the garden plots and look for the sparklies, then click one. You should be casting a spell called "Infuse Catalyst." When done, you receive the notification "[Catalyze This!] Quest Complete."
To his right (your left), stands Seed Merchant Daybreak--buy one of his Leaf Seeds for the next quest, but you don't need it for this one. However, if you're too quick to jump on the new Wildseed, you have to wait until your Wildseeds have sprouted to do the next quest. REPEAT: you don't need to buy a Leaf Seed for this quest, but you do for the next quest in the series. Happy growing!

You have to target the plot, then use the item. It's not enough to just stand near one.
Ok, but HOW do you get started with this?

Description
The grove grows in power, and so shall the spirits it shelters. You have nurtured a spirit to rebirth on your own. Now you must learn to make use of catalysts. When planted near a wildseed, catalysts grant the slumbering spirit strength beyond what it knew in life. Strength that it retains when reborn. Catalysts are special and rare, though I have one here for you to use. Others can be found across the Shadowlands. For now, plant the catalyst and witness the potential it holds.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Rebirth of the Grove
Though not yet withered, the conservatory wilts amidst the drought. This grove is not what it once was. As warden, I bear the twin burdens of guilt and shame. Fate saw to this grove's decay and my failure to prevent it. But fate has also seen to hope in its renewal. Hope in you.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Seed of a Thought
Within wildseeds, spirits slumber and grow. But so too can catalysts, when seeds take the place of spirits. Seed Merchant Daybreak trades in such seeds. She can supply you with the ones you seek. Choose one to plant within a wildseed. The forest holds its breath and awaits your choice.
