Every species of animal, plant and fungi in glorantha has its own spirit. In many cases, two or more names for the same creature spirit may be known (for example the Telmori and the Dog People, the Galanini and the Pentan horse riders etc). The elves subsume most of their wild-plant cults within the cult of aldrya where all plants are children of the forest.
As for wild non-aldryami places, the best known (so far) plant gods are Slor, the God of (Pamaltelean) Swamps and Mee Vorala, the goddess of fungus. The Doraddi also worship the Plant Brothers and have names for the ones that they know of. The Spiders of Spiderwood may worship their trees but nobody has been able to communicate with them to find out.
