A '''Volcano Plant''' (also known as a '''Volcano Lotus''') is a terrestrial variant of [[Lava Lotus]]<ref name=Book1>「任天堂公式ガイドブック　スーパーマリオワールド」 (''Nintendo Kōshiki Guidebook – Super Mario World''), page 27 (PONKEY <small>ポンキー</small> description). 「マリオ3に出てきた水中花の地上バージョン。火の玉を4つ吐き出して一休み。このくり返し。マントではじき飛ばすのが一番楽だ。」 (''An aboveground version of Mario 3's Suichūka. It spits out 4 fireballs then takes five. This repeats. It is easiest to flick it away with the Cape.'')</ref> that shoots out [[fireball]]s, appearing in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2]]'', and ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''.

Volcano Lotuses first appear in ''Super Mario World'' and later in ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2''. They are stationary obstacles that spew small fireballs into the air at a diagonal angle, which proceed to slowly rain down on the surrounding area after reaching their highest point. While invulnerable to [[Fire Mario]]'s fireballs, Volcano Lotuses can be defeated by whirling [[Mario]]'s [[Cape Feather|Cape]] next to them or eating them with a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]. [[Spin Jump|Spin-jump]]ing on them or stepping on them while riding a Yoshi will not harm them, but it will make the player bounce off without taking damage.

A Volcano Lotus, referred to as a '''Fire Plant''', appears in the episode "[[Send in the Clown]]" of the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' television series]]. It produces the fireballs that Mario, [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], and [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] use in a tennis game (in lieu of actual tennis balls).

Volcano Plants also appear in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''. The game also introduces a "[[Calm]]" version, the [[Calm Volcano Plant|C. V. Plant]].

===Other appearances===

In the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft]]'', Spore Blossoms are replaced by Volcano Plants.
