Algark stalk

Algark Stalks were a carnivorous fungus native to the planet Gamorr. Algark colonies grew on high stalks and the tops formed a wind sensitive sail-bulb that would dispense spores if agitated by wind or a passing creature. The spores would root in soil and animal flesh alike, where a new colony would form. The animals were eventually consumed by the fungus but not before the new colony had been transported miles from the parent colony.
