Plantera

Plantera is a hardmode boss introduced in 1.2. It is summoned by destroying a pink plant that grows in the open areas of the Underground Jungle. Said plant only spawns after another hardmode boss has been defeated first. Upon death, Plantera drops a number of items, including a key that unlocks the underground jungle dungeon. When it is defeated for the first time it will always drop a Grenade Launcher with Rocket Is. Plantera changes to its second for when it reaches half health, which is 15000.
