Shandelia & Hibana Grass
The Fire Dimension is usually very dark, and recording images of flora there can be difficult. However, there is an area on the border of the dimension and the sea where the sun shines through brilliantly, illuminating the volcanic coast in vermillion hues.
The Shandelia was one of the first recorded specimens on this venture to the border of the dimension where the light shines. It has a natural warmth to it when touched, and light pulsates gently through the plant, even in the dark. The plant has a dry feeling to it, but it is very much alive. It gives off seeds and pollen like sparks of fire, drifting gently in the wind. Thus far there has only been one discovered, but a more thorough survey of the coast is expected to turn up more.
Its branches have a distinct savory spice to them, almost like curly fries, strongest at the tips and getting more woody towards the base. The seeds taste a bit like fennel.
Hibana Grass is quite warm, and likewise glows in the dark. They sizzle when put in water and have a smoky hot flavor. The latter aspect is more pronounced in its seedheads.
