  • Immune to Hay Fever
  • Blooms during Lush/Green/Spring - speed boost up to 1.2x (increased hunger drain up to 2x)

Drawbacks

  • Loses sanity when nearby plants are destroyed (-2 to -15 depending on plant)
  • Chopping trees costs -15 sanity per tree
  • Flammable - can catch fire and take burn damage

Survival Strategies

  • 1.Use Compost Wrap for healing since food won't restore health
  • 2.Plant frequently to maintain high sanity - every seed planted helps
  • 3.Use Bramble Husk for defense - it deals thorns damage to attackers
  • 4.Avoid chopping trees near your base to prevent sanity drain - use other fuel sources
