I had a dream a short while back that involved (this was all backstory, really; the dream itself was mostly a bunch of sneaking around and planning for a resistance rendezvous) aliens having taken over the Earth. They'd initially taken out all important targets, missile silos and the like, by orbital kinetic kill weapons (not relevant here, but cool, and featured in flashbacks), and then much of their occupation forces were fast-growing ambulatory plants with natural weapons. Sort of like triffids.
But this reminds me that there was actually no indication that the plants themselves were aliens. They may have been repurposed. So I support the hope that your future conservatory full of walking dangerous mutant plants will be fine.
As a sidenote, it also only occurred to me long after the fact that the occupation forces chosen was just a demonstration of just how very far my subconscious is willing to stretch to make an unstated "Green Zone" pun.
