Hey there /an/.
I'm trying to write a story that, at one point, has the main character facing a monster plant.
The setting is (by now, could be changed if needed) a warm, humid forest beside a large mass of water.
I want the attacking plant monster to give him scars/burns and also drowsiness and fever.
So far, the "giant hogweed" (Heracleum Mantegazzianum) fits the role well, but it does not cause fever and drowsiness, so I thought I could combine it with a second - also toxic - plant that could cause those symptoms upon touch.
Any suggestions on what that second plant could be?
Yes, I'm looking too deep into it.

Muscle paralyzing spores from the flower
Then the plant slowly buries the main character with its tentacle-like roots and uses him as fertilizer

What's it's name? Scientific would be best.

OP here.
Off of what I've read the giant hogweed does cause burns, but not paralysis (the plant does not live where I do).
