Oh, plants. I'm okay with plants.

You'd better be okay with plants.

[medpacksapunch]

Plants, huh? Sure, okay.

[screwthatnoise]

I do not know anything about plants.

Re: DISCUSS

[medpacksapunch]

Okay, so, how's this--

It's a land-based plant and the roots and leaves are edible and medicinal, if you prepare them right. What do we want the medicine to be for, by the way?

Anyway-- it's a flowering plant, so we can have pretty blossoms for decoration or making dye out of. The fruit looks like gemstones, so that the rockziles will want to eat it; that will help spread the seeds.

The fruit itself is actually poisonous, so people can't eat it-- the flesh will just--- just make you really weird like Clue-sempai, but the pit is actually harmful. But you could use that poison to stop the regeneration of the snakes, if you can figure out how to extract the poison from the pit.

...Does it live off salt water and sand? I don't think we decided that.

Re: DISCUSS

Not bad. It would have many uses.

Re: DISCUSS

Headache medicine, maybe? And I like the salt water thing.

And the fruit. Definitely the fruit.

A salt-water land-based plant. Nice.

The roots should be medicinal for slowing bleeding, leaves for dealing with burns.

Re: FINAL ANSWER

It's a small, land-based flowering plant. It grows near the ocean because it uses salt water for nourishment.

The flowers can be used for decoration or crushed up for dye, or even eaten if you really wanted to. The roots are edible as well, and if you dry them and mash them up, you can use the powder as a coagulant. The leaves can be brewed for tea, or mashed up to be used in medicine for burns.

The fruit looks like gemstones -- but only one type of gem per plant-- so that the rockziles will want to eat them; that's how the seeds will spread. The flowers will be the same color as the gemstone, too. The fruit itself is toxic to humans-- the flesh will just get you really high like Clue-sempai likes, but the pit would probably be pretty dangerous. If you can figure out how to get the toxin out, you could use it to coat weapons; the toxin will help stop or slow the regeneration of the snakes' heads. You have to be really careful with that though-- it's really potent.

It pollinates by using those little fluffy things that float around.

[ there is now a low spread out bush in your glass rectangle thing.

The plastic bottom has also turned RUBY RED. ]

Please guess how best to nurish this plant. You will have to eat the results.

( you can just list in sequence in the action sequence comment. Like "give plenty of water, drench in the blood of infants, sing to, etc" )
