Are confirmed from gardening. It says so in the patch notes. Also Miniature minecart comes from a level 50 miner venture (XIV I believe)

The following items can now be obtained through gardening:
Gysahl Greens / Krakka Root / Thavnairian Onion / Curiel Root / Sylkis Bud / Mimett Gourd / Tantalplant / Pahsana Fruit / Onion Prince / Eggplant Knight / Garlic Jester / King Tomato / Mandragora Queen / Pear Roselle

I know they are from gardening. I have them listed as coming from gardening. The ‘unknown’ part is the combination of seeds that you have to plant in order to crossbreed them. A few of the combinations are listed in the Gardeining – Harvesting thread, but still need confirmation.

They aren’t officially released yet. If you check the Lodestone Database (or Libra Eorzea App) you will find that only the ones I have listed above have been added to the game.

The Mini Mole and Wind-up Goblin have been in the dats since 2.0 and only JUST been released in 2.3. There are still a few minions besides those new ones that have been sitting in the dat files unused like Tender Lamb, Baby Zu and Tiny Colibri. So until SE adds them into the database there is no point in looking for them or any of the 'new' ones cause they don’t even exist.

And Updated with the Minecart -.- Guess I really am gonna have to meld my mining retainer.
