The Plant Family (植物系, Shokubutsu-kei?, lit. Plant type/family) is one of the monster families in the series. Monsters in this family consist of plant life and fungi of all kinds, from seeds, roots, herbs, flowers, fruits, and trees animated through some means such as magic or evil.

In the Monsters series of games, monsters that were originally classified as Plants now belonged to the Nature family, bringing together Bugs, as well.

Effective Skills and Weapons edit

  • In Dragon Quest IX, Axes will always deal an additional 10% damage to monsters of the Plant family. The Poplar Toppler skill deals 50% more damage, but this does not stack with an axe's innate effectiveness.
  • The Branching skill (also known as Shears) deals 50% extra damage to monsters of the Plant family.
