Bio: (most of it is written on the .png but here is just the quick summery and facts)

Everyone has heard of the plant called a 'snapdragon' and many forest and plant dragon species have been created.... but this is the official, common species of plant dragon called a Snap- Dragon.

These floral dragons portray flowers that come from bulbs, seeds, vines or bushes (such as roses, tulips, orchids and sunflowers) and generally live like flowers themselves. They feed off of sugars created from photosynthesis (formed in special glands bellow the lower jaw), attract/catch/eat all sorts of bugs and sometimes mice and water from their tails which act like roots. They attract their prey will their sweat (which is nectar) and their colorful 'hoods' which are basically the petals of the floral species they grow into. The are born out of eggs which have the same properties as seeds and develop like a flower. The floral species they grow into depends on the floral gene of their parents. Florini also have a knack for being curious but shy and rarely leave the spot they were born from unless there is not enough nutrition or they need to mate. Snap dragons are duo-sex (both female and male like actual plants) but they need to mate in order to produce seeds. Once they mate, both the 'father' and 'mother' dragon are able to make seeds and choose the perfect place to plant their offspring.

Physical appearance:

Their heads are small and covered by a 'hood' which is shaped like the floral specie the gene has given them. The patterns and designs along the body portray that specie and act as camouflage among the actual floral breeding ground. Their tails have the same tissues as roots are are able to get nutrients from the soil where they were born. Their wings are actually skin tissue which has the pattern and shape of the flower type and are fully functional- even though they don't tend to fly that often or for long distances. They have small spines along the forelegs and spine for protection and climbing. Otherwise their skin is plant-like and very thin and fragile.

Habitat:

Wherever their flower type is born..... in the soil and hopefully near water.
