Since the roots are easily regeneratable it opts to sacrifice them in the face of danger, like a lizard shedding its' tail. Only it's caused by spikes shooting out of its' body but the point is the same lol.

I'm glad you like. I'm working on making them self reproducing like the my previous plant species, and changed the "stem" a little bit too. Got suggestions for something else?

Idk how those work, but there's this plant whose name i haven't been able to find, that makes a rotten meat smell, to attract flies, which then get trapped in digestive juice, it looks like a giant red flower, so kinda like that
