+    :summary: Grow and remove shrubs or trees.
+    :tags: adventure fort armok map plants
+
+Grow and remove shrubs or trees. Modes are ``list``, ``create``, ``grow``,
+and ``remove``. ``list`` prints a list of all valid shrub and sapling raw IDs.
+``create`` allows the creation of new shrubs and saplings. ``grow`` adjusts
+the age of saplings and trees, allowing them to grow instantly. ``remove`` can
+remove existing shrubs and saplings.
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+Provide a mode (including a ``plant_id`` for ``create``) followed by optional
+``pos`` arguments and options. The ``pos`` arguments can limit operation of
+``grow`` or ``remove`` to a single tile or a cuboid. ``pos`` should normally be
+in the form ``0,0,0``, without spaces. The string ``here`` can be used in place
+of numeric coordinates to use the position of the keyboard cursor, if active.
+
+::
+
+    plant list
+
+Prints a list of all shrub and sapling raw IDs for use with the other modes.
+Both numerical and string IDs are provided.
+
+::
+
+    plant create <plant_id> [<pos>] [<options>]
+
+Creates a new plant of the specified type at ``pos`` or the cursor position.
+The target must be a floor tile, consisting of soil, grass, ashes, or
+non-smooth muddy (layer, obsidian, or ore) stone. ``plant_id`` is not
+case-sensitive, but must be enclosed in quotes if spaces exist. (No unmodded
+shrub or sapling raw IDs have spaces.) A numerical ID can be used in place of a
+string. Use ``plant list`` for a list of valid IDs.
+
+::
+
+    plant grow [<pos> [<pos>]] [<options>]
+
+Grows saplings (including dead ones) into trees. Will default to all saplings
+on the map if no ``pos`` arguments are used. Saplings will die and fail to grow
+if they are blocked by another tree.
+
+::
+
+    plant remove [<pos> [<pos>]] [<options>]
+
+Remove plants from the map (or area defined by ``pos`` arguments). By default,
+it only removes invalid plants that exist on non-plant tiles (due to
+:bug:`12868`). The ``--shrubs`` and ``--saplings`` options allow normal plants
+to be targeted instead. Removal of fully-grown trees isn't currently supported.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+``plant list``
+    List all valid shrub and sapling raw IDs.
+``plant create tower_cap``
+    Create a Tower Cap sapling at the cursor.
+``plant create 203 -c -a tree``
+    Create a Willow sapling at the cursor, even away from water features,
+    ready to mature into a tree.
+``plant create single-grain_wheat 70,70,140``
+    Create a Single-grain Wheat shrub at (70, 70, 140).
+``plant grow``
+    Attempt to grow all saplings on the map into trees.
+``plant grow -z -f maple,200,sand_pear``
+    Attempt to grow all Maple, Acacia, and Sand Pear saplings on the current
+    z-level into trees.
+``plant grow 0,0,100 19,19,119 -a 10``
+    Set the age of all saplings and trees (with their original sapling tile)
+    in the defined 20 x 20 x 20 cube to at least 10 years.
+``plant remove``
+    Remove all invalid plants from the map.
+``plant remove here -sp``
+    Remove the shrub or sapling at the cursor.
+``plant remove -spd``
+    Remove all dead shrubs and saplings from the map.
+``plant remove 0,0,49 0,0,51 -pz -e nether_cap``
+    Remove all saplings on z-levels 49 to 51, excluding Nether Cap.
+
+Create Options
+--------------
+
+``-c``, ``--force``
+    Create plant even on tiles flagged ``no_grow`` and unset the flag. This
+    flag is set on tiles that were originally boulders or pebbles, as well
+    as on some tiles found in deserts, etc. Also allow non-``[DRY]`` plants
+    (e.g., willow) to grow away (3+ tiles) from water features (i.e., pools,
+    brooks, and rivers), and non-``[WET]`` plants (e.g., prickle berry) to
+    grow near them.
+``-a``, ``--age <value>``
+    Set the created plant to a specific age (in years). ``value`` can be a
+    non-negative integer, or one of the strings ``tree``/``1x1`` (3 years),
+    ``2x2`` (201 years), or ``3x3`` (401 years). ``value`` will be capped at
+    1250. Defaults to 0 if option is unused. Only a few tree types grow wider
+    than 1x1, but many may grow taller. (Going directly to higher years will
+    stunt height. It may be more desirable to instead use ``plant grow`` in
+    stages, or just spawn full trees using `gui/sandbox`.)
+
+Grow Options
+------------
+
+``-a``, ``--age <value>``
+    Define the age (in years) to set saplings to. ``value`` can be a
+    non-negative integer, or one of the strings ``tree``/``1x1`` (3 years),
+    ``2x2`` (201 years), or ``3x3`` (401 years). ``value`` will be capped at
+    1250. Defaults to 3 if option is unused. If a ``value`` larger than 3 is
+    used, it will make sure even fully-grown trees have an age of at least the
+    given value, allowing them to grow larger. (Going directly to higher years
+    will stunt tree height. It may be more desirable to grow in stages rather
+    than all at once. Trees grow taller every 10 years.)
+``-f``, ``--filter <plant_id>[,<plant_id>...]``
+    Define a filter list of plant raw IDs to target, ignoring all other tree
+    types. ``plant_id`` is not case-sensitive, but must be enclosed in quotes
+    if spaces exist. (No unmodded tree raw IDs have spaces.) A numerical ID
+    can be used in place of a string. Use ``plant list`` and check under
+    ``Saplings`` for a list of valid IDs.
+``-e``, ``--exclude <plant_id>[,<plant_id>...]``
+    Same as ``--filter``, but target everything except these. Cannot be used
+    with ``--filter``.
+``-z``, ``--zlevel``
+    Operate on a range of z-levels instead of default targeting. Will do all
+    z-levels between ``pos`` arguments if both are given (instead of cuboid),
+    z-level of first ``pos`` if one is given (instead of single tile), else
+    z-level of current view if no ``pos`` is given (instead of entire map).
+``-n``, ``--dry-run``
+    Don't actually grow plants. Just print the total number of plants that
+    would be grown.
+
+Remove Options
+--------------
+
+``-s``, ``--shrubs``
+    Target shrubs for removal.
+``-p``, ``--saplings``
+    Target saplings for removal.
+``-d``, ``--dead``
+    Only target dead plants for removal. Can't be used without ``--shrubs``
+    or ``--saplings``.
+``-f``, ``--filter <plant_id>[,<plant_id>...]``
+    Define a filter list of plant raw IDs to target, ignoring all other plant
+    types. This applies after ``--shrubs`` and ``--saplings`` are targeted,
+    and can't be used without one of those options. ``plant_id`` is not
+    case-sensitive, but must be enclosed in quotes if spaces exist. (No
+    unmodded shrub or sapling raw IDs have spaces.) A numerical ID can be
+    used in place of a string. Use ``plant list`` for a list of valid IDs.
+``-e``, ``--exclude <plant_id>[,<plant_id>...]``
+    Same as ``--filter``, but target everything except these. Cannot be used

+``-z``, ``--zlevel``

+    z-level of first ``pos`` if one is given (instead of single tile), else

+``-n``, ``--dryrun``
+    Don't actually remove plants. Just print the total number of plants that
+    would be removed.
