Sci-fi/ Fantasy Books With Sentient Plants in them

A bit of a random question, but has anyone read any good books in which some characters are sentient plants? The reason I'm asking this is I'm working on a story where the characters are sentient plants and I want to get some ionspiration (but also check it's not accidentally too similar to anything someone else has already written.) I've already read The Day of the Triffids.See More

A slightly bizarre showerhead request

Hi! I'm a n00b, but nerfighters seem friendly, so I'm hoping you'll be nice to me. I have a small, slightly bizarre question that I need to help decrease worldsuck for two of my friends. Basically, they're married and they've recently moved into a new house.
