Florando is the fifth and nature planet. Florando is a massive rainforest with a few rivers, waterfalls, marshes, plateaus and hills. The trees are so close together in some parts they block out most of the light. Florando is hot and humid, because of Florando's climate, so much so that the winters still feel more like an oddly still spring. the planet is filled with so much plant life that one would not be able to go anywhere without being surrounded by flora, Most of the plants are quite strange, from producing odd necter, to growing in water, to growing on other plants or even on/in sapient animals.
Geography
Florando is a rainforest with a few rivers, waterfalls, marshes, even some hills and plateaus. the various trees, moss and vines create a sea of green no one can escape unless they leave the planet. The plants are rather large as well, with trees that have roots emerging slightly from the ground, big enough to trip you and ferns that are so huge a simple breeze that pushes them backwards a bit could actually hurt you if you got struck by one during a little gust. The rivers and lakes of Florando sometimes contain large lily pads.
Ecosystem
The local animals have evolved to become symbotes, growing plant life on their own bodies, doing so grants them unique abilities, from spraying pollen/shooting seeds, shooting petals, or having a pair of vines that act as arms. They use this to not just blend in, but also to defend from attackers, grab items or blend into the rainforest of Florando. Florando has no such thing as SAWS seasonal cycle as we know it, rather, like Pyrus, it has only a wet season and dry season, with both being quite hot and humid.
Ecosystem Cycles
During the Wet season, Florando expereinces intense downpours which causes great plant growth. During the Dry season, Florando experinces less to no rain at all and becomes prone to fires that help remove dead plant matierial to make room for new plants the next wet season.
Localized Phenomena
Florando has massive flora due to it's super-furtile soil.
Climate
Florando is hot and humid with little to no change over time aside from the dry season getting less/no rain compared to the wet season.

Natural Resources
Nearly all of Florando's plants count as one, for starters, the planet has many trees that are harvested for wood as well as flowers for their pollen, even other plants like vines and ferns are also taken and sold as exotic plants.
History
Most of Florando's was once flooded in a massive lake, and the places left out where mostly dry plains, however, as temperatures fell deep into an ice age, large glaciers formed around it. The Temperatures then slowly rose once more, forcing the lake to drain into other places and slowly form the rivers and lakes of Florando today, redistrubuting the water much more evenly and allowing the once flooded land to expereicnce air and grow more diverse flora and allow the plains to experience water.
Tourism
Florando gets quite a lot of tourists who go to see the massive rainforests and possibly collect some of the local flora. Others come for the vicious battles in Florando's arenas, which often lead to fights between between the two teams.
