Now that I think about it, these new plants could be great for world building.

These plants give us a look into not just the flora of Runeterra, but the possibilities to how they are used.

Take a look at Honeyfruit. Already we can see a fruit that's probably a common ingredient for pies, juice, and other things you can make with fruits that I don't know because I'm lacking in this area of knowledge.

Then we have blast cones, which could be weapinized or be the basis of early hand held explosives in Runeterra!

Not sure what Scryer's bloom could be used for, but I'm sure it has potential!

Something's wrong when my first thought for Scryer's Bloom is suspicious spouses hiding them on their partner, so they can be tracked when they go a-wandering!

Probably better to imagine Scryer's Bloom as being like a light source for difficult situations - seeing through terrible smog in Zaun, or being handed out to a search party looking for a missing child in the forest.

(Also, do want a Honeyfruitcake recipe. Or a Honeyfruit cider. Or Honeyfruit jam. Honeyfruit candy? Or Honeyfruit almost anything.)

Scryer's Bloom could be used by Seers to help them with their predictions.

Scryer bloom looks so romantic, like I imagine say... Blitzcrank just chilling in a field, he picks up one but his super big hands accidentally blow it out, causing the whole field to blow out creating a beautiful display

since potions/elixirs are canonically a thing that exist, i'm sure the alchemists of runeterra have a field day with the plants

i could imagine people putting crushed blast cone leaves in the elixir of bloodlust, putting honeyfruit juice into the elixir of iron (and adding in the peel for a little extra kick), and sprinkling scryer's bloom into boiling water that you cook up elixirs of sorcery with.

just a thought

We need more lore about flora and fauna (specifically flora, since fauna was already kinda expanded to a degree due to the need to have Monster camps in-game, as well as some animals mentioned in lore). In terms of world building, these two elements are a must.

I think Ivern did this personally. My theory: Riot said he was close to finishing his story unlike many other champions. I think he freed a lot of the buffs (hence why the raptors got replaced) and started teaching people to use the jungle plants for their buffs instead like in his lore.
