I believe that an atmosphere-sustaining plant on Luna was a centerpiece in the juvenile SF novel "The Lotus Caves" written in 1969 by John Christopher, but I don't have a copy on hand in order to check the details. --Woozle 21:34, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Heart of the Comet, David Brin & Gregory Benford, 1986? Amazon link

Perhaps we should mention Darren Aronofsky's The Fountain as a film featuring a spacefaring tree. I mean, especially if we're going to count the forest dome in Silent Running as a "tree". :) --Quuxplusone (talk) 09:10, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Integral Trees

[edit]

Larry Niven's Integral Trees seem to fit also.

Skunk Cabbage

[edit]

The skunk cabbage in the introduction is a link to a disambiguation page, which is a bit sad.

Of the plants on that list, I think that Western skunk cabbage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symplocarpus_foetidus is the only thermogenic plant. 222.152.27.40 (talk) 08:47, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
