Bota was a type of flowering plant with helpful properties. Shortly after the First Battle of Geonosis[1] in 22 BBY,[2] Jedi Knight Iskat Akaris discovered bota growing in the flower beds of a small walled garden accessible from the Jedi Archives in the Jedi Temple on the planet Coruscant. She recognised the plant and remembered its name from readings that Jedi Master Sember Vey had assigned to her.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
In the current Star Wars canon, bota appeared in Delilah S. Dawson's 2023 novel Inquisitor: Rise of the Red Blade.[1] The plant originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where it first appeared in the 2004 novel MedStar I: Battle Surgeons, which was written by Michael Reaves and Steve Perry.[3]
