Tbh I sprinkled some crafter salt all over my workbench when I saw the Verdant Partition being a drop from just that dungeon. It would be PERFECT as a crafted item but nooooo... >.>
Given it's a big item I'd be fine with requiring a considerable amount of seedlings, humus, growth formulas etc. (also to not tank the value completely), but yes please, make it crafted in addition to the drop. Shoving more and more things into loot tables or scrips just feels bad for me as a crafter![]()
