It is a rare species of the honeyplant family; until recently, was considered extinct from the virtual nature. Full name "Laetifica Renues Caulis". It is known for its medicinal and therapeutic properties. Moreover, its special feature is the accumulation of positive energy and its radiation to the surrounding beings, often psychologically depressed, sad, nervous or even prone to depression. In this regard, it was awarded the status of "Virtual Therapist". Sensory microcells, comprising the cover of the plant are able to capture the smallest signals in the area, scan the object, its condition, and send "correction" signal, as necessary. During the first minutes of action the state of euphoria may be felt. Lateca lives in isolation, preferably on the water, that helps it filter nutrient materials, delivering them to the plant through the root system.

One of the oldest virtual plants. Unofficially, was dubbed "Walking Naturalist." It reacts to the environment of the real world. Therefore, if somewhere in the world any plant or animal dies, the Greenwalking Dendriform wilts; if born – it blooms and fragrants. At such moments, the plant attracts insects from all around to collect pollen. The crust of the Greenwalking Dendriform comprises anti-aging substances. It lives mostly in small groups from 3 to 10, more rarely, 12 species. The plant is the main supplier of the official statistics to the centers for environmental and ecological studies. Despite the fact that population of the Greenwalking Dendriform is very small and listed in the International Virtual Nature Protection Organization (IVNPO), the plant is, in fact, not subjected to aging.

The nature of the virtual world is rich and diverse. One of its unique representatives, Alchemicus Redolent, also known as Flower - Perfumer, is everybody's favorite and the king of the bees' hearts. The body of the flower resembles a complex alchemic laboratory that constantly operates conducting experiments in search of new fragrances. Specific plant cells produce essential oils, which create compounds unexplainable by any analysis or logic. They comprise the complex mixtures of various components that enter the body of the flower through the "ltering disk-shaped hat," seep into the cone, and circulate through all the vessels of the plant. Like a musical virtuoso, playing on the strings of all kinds of fragrances, Alchemicus accumulates almost the entire virtual entomofauna. Emitting an unusual odor, the smell of this honey plant attracts even the most sophisticated nectar lovers.

Do you know how crimson dawn look like? Few people know how crimson dawn look like. In that hour, when everything is blooming and fragrant, the moment, when the insects are uncountable, that wonderful time, when the sky for a moment becomes scarlet and on the horizon, fun and provocatively flying towards you the irrepressible hellion of the virtual world - Crimson Needle Fidget. This frisky and lovely flower is endowed with special properties. With its bright appearance, its bloom is nothing but a bundle of containers for storage of nectar, which Fidget collects using syringe tips from other honey plants and processes it into miraculous extracts. All virtual residents know that this walking "pharmacy" can cure almost any disease. Often he is asked for help in private life, knowing that his "shelf" has a place for various elixirs... However, injections are not always pleasant, and this is the case, when it is said "If you like honey, you should love cold as well".

Such a rare species can only be met in the northern part of the virtual space, close to the Glass lake, which, according to the legend, gave birth to the flower. Due to its appearance and shaggy "boots" on the basis of stalk the plant was named the Gorgeous. The structure of the flower is still unknown as it has a reflective mirror-like surface, which merges with the surroundings and makes the plant almost completely invisible. The second reason - the three legs that help the Glassflower to move at a speed of "thought", so no one has to catch it. Legend says, that this mysterious flower can only be met by a person who has love in his heart, pure as the morning dew.

One of the most delicate and lovely flowers in virtual nature. Fiolent Crystal Baby appears in the sensory habitats of nascent love. It is also called "Evening Claw" and "Jealous Droplet". Extremely fragile essence depends on reciprocity and sincere feelings of the love object. Under favorable conditions, there is a dance, which causes a surprisingly gentle bloom, and from an overabundance of love flower swirls, releasing love pheromones. In these moments joy and happiness are floating around that germ of love. Digital nature rejoices, virtual Earth jubilates.
