Hey this is cool, thanks!

I found a gamefaq alchemy guide for The Witcher as well, though it's a little cumbersome. You all probably already know about it.

Thanks heavens I found your post ... Bravo !!

I may be a little late in getting to "The Witcher" but I am loving the game. Your Alchemy list has helped me make some sense of why whenever I use any ingredient that also has Rubedo in it shows up with a red circle around it on the potion making page.

I realized that I did not know what effect the second ingredient like in 'Hellebore Petals' ( Aether & Rubedo ) had on the potion. I would sure hate to drink a potion only to end up with internal bleeding because I needed Aether and used Hellebore Petals and the Rubedo slowly killed Geralt and healed the monster.

thank you Lady Dragonfly for the list .
That has been such a hassle and waste of time searching.
But I think that you can get Hydragonum from mistletoe by donating friut to the alter in lebidias hospital.

Whitetail is correct in that you get some mistletoe from the Altars to Melitele (sp?), but only AFTER you get the other things for the Main Quest.
