You can resummon the Seedling Protector (and his later iterations) if you die, abandon the quest, or hearthstone out of the area; just go back to the hilly island with the "petrified" watchers where you initially picked up the quest, and the little guy reappears and is ready to go again.
Hearthing didnt' work, but logging out and logging back in did.

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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

<The tiny seedling opens its leaves wide, like a baby bird waiting to be fed. It speaks in a very faint voice:> Hungry... want... bugs...<You can hear the buzzing of wasps to the south. Could they be what the little thing wants to feed on?>
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- These Roots Were Made For Stompin'
There's so many other spirits still trapped in rotting bodies here... Do you see? The irontree stompers, in the north. They're sick with demon-stuff and icky with mold. Poor spirits inside them can't get out. You can help! Chop them down, and the spirits can get out.
