Not to mention that a lot of the other plants are simply renamed real plants.

For example Longland Grass is essentially Wheat.

So it will be called stink flowers?

It simply makes sense to do so. Can not you understand this?

Edit: and oh yeah, 'cause it gets rid of flying bug carrion eaters.

Aww, I just assumed it was carnivorous. Either way, it needs to be in the game whether you understand it or not. I'm sure Toady understands.

No, he won't understand those as there is nothing to understand. Now, there certainly is something to understand about this flower, and Toady understands.
