Every plant that joined the field guide in the last 24 hours — what it is, where its power overtakes its speed, and what it leans on as a card.
A plant’s strengths and weaknesses are read from its base (neutral) line at its crossover — the level where rising power (HP + ATK + DEF, net of the Sun cost to retreat) overtakes falling tempo (SPD + INI). That level differs by plant: a bulky tree crosses over young, a fast weed stays a skirmisher until mid-life. Each card’s table shows the crossover per stance and the fully-grown Lv 100 stats for comparison.

Desplatsia dewevrei is a broadleaf tree that moves like a weed — fewer than one tree in fifteen matches its sustained speed — trading the usual tree's wall of armour for a turn-order edge it can't keep late.

Karawata multiflora is an unremarkable epiphyte on paper; its edge is defensive — Peltate Trichomes cut the damage it takes from poison and burn by nearly a third, and its kit heals it back.

Fast (SPD) 43.02Fast opener (INI) 42.70
Weaknesses
Weak DEF 1Weak ATK 15
At its crossover, Lv 35.

Pineapple has the fastest opening of any epiphyte in the game and nearly the slowest follow-through — it takes the first turn, then gets out-paced, so its game is landing damage before the initiative fades.

Blue Haworthia is a middling succulent on every axis; its worth is a benched HP cushion and a slow, sun-fed self-heal, not anything it does on the attack.
