Octopus Plants are giant light-sensitive carnivorous plants designed by "Creeper" Jackson to be capable of capturing and killing human prey.
History
Creeper initially kept his violent creation hidden and protected, but after Lars Lang got away with very publicly trying to murder him and then sent the police to evict Creeper from his home with some papers claiming the property now belonged to Lars the angry gardener set a plant under what he thought was Lar's window to capture and kill his nemesis. The plant grabbed Lars' daughter instead, so Creeper had to kill the plant to ensure her survival. As the plant's chloroform-like gas had knocked her out Creeper took her as a hostage. The Holliday Girls were also nabbed by Octopus Plants while investigating the kidnapping, and when Wonder Woman arrived to rescue them she found that even she needed help escaping the plants due to their strength and the speed with which they generated new growth.
