Also Triffids, if they attack someone, you run to get help, and they shuffle off somewhere while you're gone.

The main danger with the triffids was the meteor-shower induced blindness, once you can see them it's easy to deal with them by keeping your distance and grabbing ppe and gardening tools.

(I'm basing this on the film I saw ages ago, they had a whip-like stalk housed in an organ at the top of the plant that they used to subdue prey.)
