They've never mentioned it and it only looked like placeholder text so it's probably something that was scrapped early on or they didn't have time to complete. Maybe there'll be a DLC for it at some point but I'd be very surprised to see it on release.

Yeah, DLC is probable but I could also imagine it being included and just kept away from the streams, since the blorg stream we didnt see the empire creation menu...
It's interesting that Paradox hasn't even mentioned the Plant phenotype at all since its discovery though.

Exactly my thoughts, no comment, not mentioning it afterwards, it reminds me of the ring worlds who we know are in game but weren't supposed to be shown.
Early in making it, I mean. We haven't seen any "plant" art after all, they may have only had a few sketches before they got rid of it.
They have mentioned ring worlds. There was an article where they said there's a ringworld called Sanctuary that can lead into a kind of early-game crisis plotline.

Why would they get rid of it? It's going to be DLC material, sooner or later. Perhaps it's the reason why they are not talkative about it, so people won't freak out about future DLC production before game came out.
Yeah but there has been a lot of threads on the matter and Paradox is usually pretty quick to answer, but here we are left in the dark. It's quite a mystery!
Yeah but in the blorg stream, they quickly changed the view when encountering the ring world, like it shouldn't be seen by the community.
If it were plant species it would have said vegetation. PLANT sounds like a programming plant or something... Indeed PLA could be short for placement. Can't think if it is short for anything but doubt it's plants...

Well if you're comparing that to the PLANT phenotype I'd like to point out that in the first Blorg stream they didn't hurry past the appearance selection where that was visible, it was visible for a good couple of minutes.
At this stage the only thing talking for plants is the fact that there have been no mentioning of it.
If there were no plans of it they would probably steped down on the rumors and confirmed no plants.
While they have revealed much I don't think they want to spill all the beans untill people actually starts playing the game. Likely there will be a few unexpected suprises at launch. Maybe also a few expected ones like plants and ringworlds.
