So I was exploring the south end of Highmountain as a level 102 Druid, and thought, "hmm, I could use a Goblin Glider Kit to explore Suramar a bit", I aimed for a flight point to pick up, but as I got lower, I noticed two Starlight Roses, so I circled and landed near them.
I picked the first one, it crumbled and gave me this quest. The second one gave me [item=129158]... guess I'm not the accomplished Herbalist I thought I was.
Also, level 110 panthers with 1M HP hurt. Barely managed to escape.tl;dr I stopped to smell the roses... and the roses crumbled under my nose.

The kind of crap I dream about while farming starlight roses hour after hour.
At some point when attempting to collect them you'll get a quest to turn in at the herbalism trainer. Turning it in grants you: Attempting to gather starlight roses will fail less often. (What kind of crap is that?)
That is every comment on this page.

- The Gentlest Touch
Sadly, I don't have any special techniques that can help you here. You'll simply need to practice your methods. Get back out there, and focus on a gentle touch when dealing with starlight roses.
