Plants typically grew in a permanent site, but some could move about in search of better light, nutrients or soils. As plants grew, they went to seed to bear their young, and then slowly decayed to organic matter and fertilized their habitat for subsequent generations. Plant life could also be found underwater, in which case it was often known as alga. Within a given ecosystem, the diversity of plant life could be extremely high—on the planet Alderaan alone, there existed more than 8,000 different species of grass.

  • Plants typically grew in a permanent site, but some could move about in search of better light, nutrients or soils. As plants grew, they went to seed to bear their young, and then slowly decayed to organic matter and fertilized their habitat for subsequent generations.

Within a given ecosystem, the diversity of plant life could be extremely high—on the planet Alderaan alone, there existed more than 8,000 different species of grass. Seed plants bore specific reproductive organs known as flowers. The basic structure of flowers was much the same across the galaxy, with a stamen, anther, and pollen. The pollen was a microscopic powder the spread of which allowed plants to reproduce, and was transported by various pollination-agents like the wind, insects, or other animals. The flying, non-sentient insects called bees were known to bumble their way in the blossoms, thus helping pollinate those plants and ensure their survival. Animal species often found it difficult to communicate with plants, since their entire life was based upon an existence where food was present every day. They lacked many concepts Humans and other animal species found natural, but some plants were, in fact, sentient. Vegetal species typically possessed passive natural defenses, such as burrs poisonous leaves or fruits. On the planet Cona, water was scarce, and many plants had evolved ways to defend their water supply, which they stored in gastric pods underground. The plants would poison the water, make thorn traps, and some were carnivorous. Even regular, non-sentient plants were suffused with the Force, like any other type of lifeform. They could "feel" what happened to them and had a certain awareness of their surroundings, but they were not considered properly conscious. On the contrary, some plant species like the Neti from Myrkr, the Ergesh from Ergeshui, or the Revwien from Revyia had evolved to full sentience, while others like the fftssfft of Endor were only semi-sapient.
