Regrowth scroll enables the use of the Regrowth special move for a Hydra. Using the Hydra pouch on a Summoning obelisk creates 10 scrolls.
[edit] Regrowth
Regrowth is a special move for Hydras. When used on a farming tree stump, it automatically regrows the associated tree without delay. Note that it can only be used on trees grown using the Farming skill. Regrowth is really helpful when cutting Magic or Yew trees that a player has farmed.

[edit] Trivia
- This most likely refers to the Lernaean Hydra, a mythological many-headed serpent that when cut off, its head would regrow. The hero Heracles had to kill a hydra in Greek lore. To do it he cut its heads off and finished it off by burying it under a boulder, since its heads were invulnerable and kept regrowing.
