In some cases, they don't have to be any particularly wild properties, and are more or less just analogues for real plants or fruit, but they're still [[CallARabbitASmeerp called something fantastic]]. And yes, while they aren't technically plants, fungi are included here too.

* ''Series/StarTrekPicard'':
