Where to Find Blue Mountain Flower in "Skyrim"
I love giving tips and advice to help people in video games.
Flowers that are blue.. that sometimes, grow on mountains. But not always.
This article will list the best places to hunt down some Blue Mountain Flower. These flowers are fairly easy to come by, but it can save you a lot of time if you know where they grow in the highest numbers
The reference points I use are easily found on the map. If you do not know the names I am using as references points, you can fast travel with the carriage. This is something that's wise to do to get the most out of the game early on.
The Locations to Find the Most Blue Mountain Flower
Blue Mountain Flower (BMF) can be found all over the place. You can just walk along most roads and paths to find them. You can also hang outside of houses and cities to find these flowers. Below will be some locations where you can find great concentrations of BMF. It is also worth mentioning that these flowers, along with all other wild grown items, will respawn. This won't happen with items you steal. That's sort of obvious, but I thought I should mention it.
Helgen, just as the Dragon is about to attack
The path at exit of the cave you had to go through to escape Helgen
The path from Helgen leads to Riverwood
1. Road Between Helgen and Riverwood
The road from Helgen toward Riverwood will have a lot of BMF.
Up in Northern Skyrim. Some how the flowers grow here.
2. Northern Skyrim
It would seem that you can have a lot of luck if you spend time within the northern areas of the Skyrim map.
Solitude. Known to be a bit chilly.
Dragon Bridge
3. Between Solitude and Dragon Bridge
If you make your way between Solitude and Dragon Bridge, you will find a lot of BMF.
Another cave to mine or kill the rogues that hangout here
4. Around Boulderfall Cave
If you spend a small amount of time around Boulderfall Cave—not inside or south of the cave—you will find plenty. This can be found to the north of Riften.

Another place that's North East of Riften
6. Autumnshade Clearing
The Autumnshade Clearing is yet another place to find a few BMF.
7. East Empire Company Warehouse
When you are in Solitude, locate the East Empire Company Warehouse. Here you will find a large archway with plenty of BMF.
8. Battle-Born Farm
While in Whiterun—this will most likely be the first town you visit—pay close attention to the north part of the town. The Battle-Born Farm has plenty of these flowers.
9. Temple of Mara
While in Riften, take a look outside the Temple of Mara to find a nice collection of BMF.
10. Between Helgen and Fort Neugard
There is a steep road from Helgen which leads up to Fort Neugrad. There is a huge amount of BFM at the side of the path.
11. Goldenglow Estate
Goldenglow Estate is an island West of Riften. If you can find a way up to it out of the water, you will find plenty of BMF.
12. Between Riften and Heartwood Mill
When traveling between Riften and Heartwood Mill, you can can find plenty of BMF. Be careful of the occupants of Faldar's Tooth fort. They can be pretty aggressive, and they are quite high in numbers.
13. Between Helgen and Riften
If you take the long and arduous trip between Helgen and Riften, you will find more Blue Mountain Flower than you can shake a stick at. There will be a few red circles that you will have to deal with, so be sure you pack enough potions and punches to deal with those that wish to harm you.
