Popper-stalk

Canon Linked from 3 articles

Popper-stalks were a native plant of the Outer Rim planet Saleucami that had fibrous, air-filled bulbs. The crop was grown in the fertile, warm soil of Saleucami's calderas and used by the world's farmers as animal fodder.

By 21 BBY, the farmer Cut Lawquane grew popper-stalks on his family's farm. That year, the family's children—Shaeeah and Jek—discovered a Separatist escape pod while playing in their farm's fields. When the young clone Omega visited the Lawquane's farm in 19 BBY, she was awed by the popper-stalks and reached out to touch them. In 4 ABY, during a Taffral family dinner on Saleucami, the farmer Glen Taffral threatened to beat his son Webb Taffral with a dry popper-stalk if he continued arguing during the meal.
