Walkthrough
After accepting the quest, you'll be taken just outside the Eye of the North's main entrance to a closed-off version of the Ice Cliff Chasms that has no NPC's or enemies except for the ones related to the quest. Gwen will be waiting for you. Go with her around toward the back of the fortress on the western side, and as you get close to her garden, you'll have to fight about a half dozen mandragors.

Once you and Gwen have dispatched them all, continue on to her garden. There, you will find it covered with red iris flowers, many more than what usually spawn and more than enough to satisfy the requirements of the quest. Pick up 20 flowers and then talk to Gwen. You'll then be taken back inside the Eye of the North. To get your reward, talk to Gwen in the Hall of Monuments.

The next time you enter either the Eye of the North or the Hall of Monuments after visiting another town, outpost, or explorable zone, you'll finally see the results of your hard work in the garden with Gwen. Both areas will be decorated with numerous pots of red iris flowers.

Initial Dialogue
Gwen
 * [Solo Quest] “Hello, old friend. Now that the immediate threat has passed, I was wondering if you might help me with something. It's clear that the Vanguard is going to be here for quite some time, so I thought it might be a good idea to make the place a little more homelike. My garden is in full bloom now, and I was able to get some clay pots and soil from the merchants. Flowers would make this place much nicer, I think, even if it is still the center of our war effort against the Charr. Ironic, I know, but somehow it seems fitting. Would you come with me to my garden and help me pick some flowers?”
 * Yes Of course. They remind us of why we're here.
 * red My thumb isn't green.
 * When asked about quest: “You'll join me outside, won't you? Don't forget, you'll be separated from the rest of your party. Are you ready?”

Intermediate Dialogue
After meeting Gwen outside
 * Gwen: “Thank you for coming. This shouldn't take long.”

On nearing the garden
 * Gwen: “Mandragors! They'll trample everything! Come on, old friend, help me kill them before they ruin the flowers!”

After killing the mandragors
 * Gwen: “That was close. We got them, though.”
 * [PlayerName]: “We make a good team."
 * Gwen: “We do, don't we? Anyway, time to get to work. If we each gather about 20 flowers, that ought to do it. Let me know when you're finished.”

When asked about the flowers
 * Gwen: “We still need some more flowers. See me when you've picked 20 of them.”

While gathering the flowers
 * Gwen: “I appreciate you doing this for me, my friend. I know it must seem somewhat dull, though, after everything we've been through lately.”
 * [PlayerName]: “Not at all. It's nice to have a break from all the fighting.”
 * Gwen: “It is, yes. We won't get many such times, I don't think, so that's why it's important to enjoy them while we can. I'm glad you feel the same way.”
 * Gwen: “You know, this reminds me of that day we spent together, back before the Searing. You brought me so many flowers back then. Funny how they still make me happy.”
 * Gwen: “We didn't know each other that well back then, but we're both still here now, together. And no matter what happened before, we're friends now.”
 * Gwen: “I don't know how you feel about what happened to me, about my imprisonment, but I want you to know that I never blamed you.”
 * [PlayerName]: “Gwen...”
 * Gwen: “None of us could have known what was about to happen, that all we knew and loved was about to be destroyed. You had your duty, and even as a child, I understood that.”
 * Gwen: “So if you've been feeling in any way responsible for the Charr finding me after you left, please don't. It wasn't your fault.”
 * Gwen: “But enough about that. It's time to focus on the future, and to lay the past to rest. You and I, we've endured so many trials together recently.”
 * Gwen: “You helped me defeat Daghar and settle my past, and together we stopped the Charr from attempting another Searing. And we helped our friends and allies stop the Destroyers.”
 * Gwen: “It seems there's nothing this world can throw at us that we can't overcome, old friend, as long as we're together.”
 * [PlayerName]: “Then the Charr don't stand a chance.”
 * Gwen: “Right! Just as these flowers continue to grow even here, so our friendship will endure. And so I'll always remember that there are things... and people... that nothing can take away.”

When giving Gwen the flowers
 * Gwen: “This should be enough, I think. Let's head back inside.”

Reward Dialogue
Gwen
 * “Good job! I'll go ahead and get everything set up, so next time you're here, take a look around and see how it turned out. Thank you again for all your help. It seems you're always there for me now, old friend, and that means a great deal to me. I don't think there's anything we can't accomplish as long as we're together. I don't know what your plans are now that the Destroyers are beaten, but I hope you'll stay for a while. I know the Ebon Vanguard could really use your help. And it would make me happy, too.”
