WoW Burning Crusade (TBC) Classic – Special Herb Locations Guide
Herbs are found in nearly every zone in Azeroth, as well as in some dungeons. To gather herbs, you must learn the Herbalism skill as one of your two primary professions. No special tools are required. Each herb has a level range that includes when you can start picking it, when you will gain skill points, and when you have mastered the level (and no longer receive skill points).

Notes on Herbalism
Failing to gather an herb means you didn’t successfully pick it, but the herb remains. Retry as needed. If your Herbalism skill is barely sufficient, it may take multiple attempts.
