You all get presents! :D
But you'll hafta color them yourselves. Because I'm lazy. And this way you get -exactly- what you want. ^.~ Here are some examples of what they might look like colored. (Resized to 200px in the largest dimension.)

Info
Distantly related to the much larger (and more intelligent) Vinus Dragons, these cat-sized plantdragons are quite colorful. They possess no eyes to speak of, but those little antennae act as well as any eyes. And whiskers. And olfactory receptors. And heat-sensors. They're multi-purposed little appendages. :3 The main body is snakelike, and requires a humid atmosphere (or frequent misting/watering) to remain a healthy green. Without moisture, they turn silver, then shriveled and black as they get ever more unhealthy. Adults also require access to direct sunlight (or artificial sunlight for space-faring individuals), as they rely on photosynthesis for almost their entire diet. The 'head' opens up to show usually brightly colored, petal-like structures. These surround what might be mistaken for a mouth, but is really the entrance to a cache of honey-like nectar deep in the dragon's 'throat.' This nectar has a variety of flavors, and through selective breeding, some plantdragons have been known to carry strawberry, cherry, vanilla, caramel, chocolate, and even citrus flavors.
These plantdragons are often kept as pets, as children love tasting their nectar. This is a fantastic method of pollination. Though they are genderless, there must be at least two dragons in order to propagate, the pollen lining their 'mouths' transferring from one to the other when something reaches in to collect nectar. Once fertilized, small blister-like growths appear just beneath the outer layer of skin in a ring circling what might be considered their 'shoulder' area. Each full grown adult can have up to eight at a time, though fewer offspring are more common, four being the average. Once they grow to about the size of a golf ball, these blisters open, revealing a single spherical, translucent egg-like bulb for each blister. Bulbs must be kept in the same moist conditions as their parents, and preferably out of direct sunlight. After about a month, the young, pale, worm-like hatchling breaks out and burrows into whatever earth it can find (dirt, mulch, fallen leaves, decaying logs, etc... so long as it is also moist). At this point, they may actually be mistaken for large earthworms, until they acclimate to the sunlight and begin to turn green. During this time, they don't rely on photosynthesis as the adults do, instead using their thin skin to absorb nutrients from their surroundings. As they grow and mature, they will gain color, and their 'head' will become more pronounced. Their sensors grow in last, signaling maturity and the ability to locate a mate.
Sounds your plantdragon might make include purring, buzzing, a high pitched keening, and soft hissing. All but the last of these are produced in the 'head' as their petals rub against each other, and are used to either convey pleasure, get attention, or scare off predators. The last one is caused by the plantdragon writhing the tip of its tail in and out of knots, and is a sign of either intense pleasure or pain.
These guys are surprisingly affectionate, and love to be stroked or held, so long as they receive their daily allotment of moisture. An unhappy plantdragon will become increasingly reclusive, often hiding in basements (where they might find more moisture, but less sunlight), until they either dry out completely, or starve for lack of proper photosynthesis.
WHEW. I think that's everything. >.>; Feel free to ask me any questions you might have after reading all of that, and enjoy coloring as many little plantdragon babies as you can stomach! :D *salute!* *scamper off*
Happy birthday Uny, I'm sorry we forgot to post anything too
