Plants were items found in the Skylanders: Universe webgame, though various sources on the rest of the series indicate they're found all over Skylands. They grant elemental power to the Skylander eating them. However, they will only do so if the elements match. Each Skylander also has a favorite plant that will give extra magic power.

In Skylanders: Lost Islands, plants are referred to as "Crops" and can be harvested for Energy. It also has two exclusive plant types, Solarium for the Light element and Lunara for the Dark element. Crops can be fertilized with Radiance using Gems, which lowers their grow time to ten seconds and doubles the amount of Energy they produce.
