If I'm not mistaken; and correct me of I am. There is a set spawn location for every herb already placed on the ground. Your perc*exp does a skill check every time you log on or come across them on screen (not entirely reliable though). So if you didn't see any in one spot, then come back every so often and hope your perc*exp skill check will reveal those invisible herbs the second, third, fourth, ect time around.
You have have noticed this Phenomenon when say... see an herb on the other end of a cliff. You go off screen to go all the way around it and suddenly that herb has vanished! Simply relog in the spot you saw the herb last and it should appear given enough attempts. This happened to me with an obnoxious rustroot. Every time I walked back to my camp the little bugger would re appear on that cliff side. Then pull a vanishing act again when I went back.
