Hostile Flora
Main article: Hazards

During cave exploration, players may encounter dangerous plants. This is a constant danger in caverns. Hostile flora also spawn on the surface of Exotic, making them an even larger threat there.

Researchable Flora
Some flora do have resources of their own. These come as either organic research items or as Research Samples growing around the plant.

Types of flora that provide research items include:
 * Sylva’s Trees
 * Sylva’s Giant Ferns
 * Cavern Bulbous Plants
 * Exotic’s Flora
 * Mushroom Trees
 * plants that before were decorating plants, provide renewable harvestables

Organic Resource
Most planets have small patches of grass or other plants that provide Organic resources when harvested. These types of plants can be identified by having multiple colors. Resources derived from these flora are useful for powering the base via the Small Generator.

Decorator flora
Decorator flora are plants that do not provide any resources or research items, and are considered as part of aesthetics. Decorator flora usually come in only one color.

Spookysquash
Gnarled Spookysquash are pumpkin-like flora that can be found on Vesania and Atrox, and drop seeds for the other five varieties when dug up. They can be grown in Round, Mutated, Smiling, Stunted and Astro varieties.
