Language of Flora is a utility spell, and a racial perk for Koroks. As such, a Korok can choose to gain it as a perk upon character creation. If a Korok chooses to gain this perk at some point after creation, the perk costs 15 rupees less than the listed cost.

Due to their unique physiology, and origin as servants of the Great Deku Tree, Koroks are capable of communicating with all forms of plants--from simpleminded grassblades and algae, to wise oaks hundreds of years in age. This is done through a silent method of communication not unlike telepathy, and can be done over maximum distance of about a 12 feet (or 4 meters). It takes a Korok only a few moments to establish a link to a plant, whereas any other race requires at least a minute of meditation. Once the caster has established a link with this spell, the plant can communicate back in the same fashion so long as the caster mentally maintains the channel and stays within distance. The caster can also function as a line between two plants otherwise unable to communicate.

Generally, most plants given communication by this spell cannot articulately express themselves, only offering images or approximate senses, though an observant caster can still make use of these. Older and larger plants may be able to communicate more articulately, particularly age-old trees. Creatures already capable or nearly capable of speech, such as Deku Scrubs or other Koroks, can of course articulate their thoughts extremely well.
