This is a table of the real-life growths and growth seasons of plants found in Dwarf Fortress. It is a work in progress.

The values in this table will be incorporated into the Expanded Plants mod. Please feel free to help with the research!

Resources for tweaking plants:

Wild biome distributions at Modification:Expanded_Plants/Biomes. All biome tokens at Biome token.

Reference table for mapping ticks to seasons at Modification:Expanded_Plants/Timing.

Color values and color tokens at Color#Color values.

Annual/semi-perennial herb pseudocereal
Humid to semi-arid mountains. Has not been widely tried in other places (geographically isolated from the temperate climes where it would do best), but has been successfully grown in England & Finland. Salt-tolerant, quite cold-tolerant. Probably OK in wetlands, because native to local elevation minimum. Probably requires full sun, because it grows above the tree line.

Red spinach.

May change name to Red Spinach Amaranth, just so people aren't confused about the brewing. Spleen Amaranth is another name for it (presumably because of the bile-colored flowers?) but that might be too gross. Maybe call the plant Spleen Amaranth and the leaves Red Spinach? Or vice versa - the plant Red Spinach and the seeds Spleen Amaranth?
