History
Super Mario World / Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2
Volcano Plants 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 or Luigi's fireballs, Volcano Plants can be defeated by whirling Mario's or Luigi's Cape next to them or eating them with Yoshi. Spin jumping on them or stepping on them while riding a Yoshi will not harm them, but will make the player bounce off without taking damage.
Super Mario World (television series)
A Volcano Lotus, referred to as a Fire Plant, appears in the episode "Send in the Clown" of the Super Mario World television series. It produces the fireballs that Mario, Luigi, Yoshi and Princess Toadstool use in a tennis game (in lieu of actual tennis balls).
Super Princess Peach
Volcano Plants also appear in Super Princess Peach. The game also introduces a "Calm" version, the C. V. Plant.
Other appearances
In the Super Mario Mash-up in Minecraft, Spore Blossoms are replaced by Volcano Plants.
