Background
'Plants' is the name given to a set of potted plants that Sensei has encountered multiple times on the class' beach trips. They lack any name, being referred to as 'Plant 1', 'Plant 2', and so on. They haven't been seen outside their meetings, where they discuss developments in the story and the various characters in the story. They're all, collectively, apart of the 'Plant Council', which adheres to 'Plant Law'.
Only Sensei has seen them, and it is suggested they are merely another part of his 'blackouts'. They also seem to have knowledge of his past, as they make explicit mention to it in Torrential Downpour. Child of Man.
Characteristics
Plant 1 is the group's leader, often left to try and wrangle the other plants into order when they get sidetracked. However, he isn't immune to getting caught up in their perversions.
Plant 2 is the most conspiratorial of the group, with the other plants calling him out on this trait in いないいない。。。ばあ!. In addition, he questions Yomiel's supposed humanity during the same event. He refers to Ami's mother as SIL (Sister-in-Law) to avoid drawing any hasty conclusion about her identity.
Plant 3 is the group's most lascivious member, evident by his repeated comments about the cast. This can also be seen when Sensei says hello to the group, and he immediately asks probing questions about Sensei's class. He was kicked out of the group during the second beach trip
Plant 4 is the most light-hearted member of the group, often childish jokes and teasing the other members. He was the one to suggest Plant 3 be kicked out. According to him, he is seeing someone named 'Bethany'. If this person is another plant, a human, or something inanimate object is unknown.
