The plant life found on Planet 4546B varies greatly in size and appearance, from the bright Acid Mushrooms to the mysterious Giant Cove Tree. Flora can be found all over the planet, except for the Lava Lakes, due to its extreme temperatures, and the Crater Edge. The exception to this is the dead plants found at the bottom of the dead zone. They are immobile life forms, staying anchored in one place unless manipulated via the Repulsion Cannon, Propulsion Cannon, knife or other methods.

Although most Flora are passive, there are certain exceptions which act as hazards to the player, dealing damage to them on contact or within a certain radius. Most Flora can be harvested, picked, or farmed. Some Flora also serve as a Food & Water source.

Some Fauna, such as the Floater or Amoeboid may act like flora, and due to common misconception are mistaken for flora, but are just parasites.
