Flora/Comics

Pre-Comics
In Issue 110: The Magical Valley of Linphea, it is revealed by Flora herself that she first met Helia within the Shimmering Flowers Valley on her homeworld when the two of them were children. Becoming fast friends, the two would often play hide-and-seek but Flora was never able to find Helia. One time, she could not find him and started crying, believing that he had left her, and would not stop crying until Helia jumped out his hiding place to hug her and assure her that he would never leave her side.

Season 1
Flora makes her debut in The Castle just after orientation at Alfea ends having already unpacked her things in her new shared dorm. She apologizes for still having a few things lying around on the floor when Varanda accidentally steps on her Talking Plant, and introduces herself as Varanda's new roommate.

Flora quickly gets acquainted with the rest of her roommates—Tecna, Stella and Musa—but is interrupted when another one of her plants starts attacking Kiko. Remaining as the gentle, understanding girl she is, Flora recognizes Kiko's hunger and uses a few magic seeds to grow him some carrots to eat. This gives Stella the idea for them to have lunch out in the the nearby city, and the five fairies happily set out to do just that as their first time hanging out.

While out in the city, Flora can be seen enjoying herself, mainly finding humor in Varanda's exasperated expressions over mundane things like levitating cars. They eventually settle down at a café for ice cream, and later move to a public fountain to wait for Varanda as she makes a phone call to home. While waiting, Flora and Stella reassure Tecna that she is not at fault for upsetting Varanda, suggesting that she may have gotten lost. She continues to wait with Tecna and Musa as Stella leaves to look for Varanda but, when Stella takes too long in her search, Flora and the other two find the Solarian princess on the ground in a nearby alleyway.

The four fairies head further into the alley as per Stella's orders, and find Varanda being frozen alive by a trio of witches from Cloud Tower. Afraid that they may end up killing Varanda, Flora, aware that she would be no match for any of the witches, launches a magic blast to distract them from their friend. She, Tecna and Musa then get knocked back when one of the witches reflects her spell, but Flora ends up being successful in her distraction, as she was able to divert the witches' attention away from Varanda long enough for the redheaded fairy to free herself from the block of ice she was encased in.

Once the witches have fled, Flora and the girls circle around Varanda to check if she is alright, only to end up with more questions when Stella repeatedly calls her "Bloom." Stella then goes on to explain everything to her, Tecna and Musa as they attempt to sneak back into Alfea undetected, only to be stopped by Griselda and Headmistress Faragonda right at the front door of the dorms. Luckily, Faragonda allows for Bloom to stay at Alfea, and the girls head up to their dorm to rest. In the following issue titled The Secrets of Alfea, Flora appears in her shared room with Bloom. She can be seen watering some of her plants as the fire fairy tries to repeat the exercise from an earlier class with Professor Wizgiz. Though she laughs at how badly Bloom manages to get the hair-changing spell wrong, Flora has one of her plants catch her mirror when she throws it away in frustration, and promptly hands it back. She then joins Bloom and Stella by Bloom's bedside as the redhead asks her friends why they decided to come to Alfea in the first place.

Both Flora and Bloom glower down at Stella when she gives a self-absorbed reason, which prompts her to "change" it to make it sound more optimistic. Flora then reveals to Bloom that she decided to come to Alfea because she wishes to learn many new things above all else. However, when she asks Bloom for her reasons, she is unable to come up with any.

The next day, Flora joins the Winx in on breakfast in the school's cafeteria where, just as Bloom arrives late, Faragonda announces the upcoming Traditional Meeting Dance that is scheduled for later that night. Naturally, such an event causes the cafeteria to erupt into various conversations, with Flora being particularly excited over how the boys from Red Fountain, a nearby all-boys military school, will be joining them. And so, later that day, Flora and the Winx begin preparing dresses that they plan to wear for the Dance. In fact, they are in such a rush that Flora has already become impatient with Stella hogging the mirror and lamenting over how terribly her ribbon got twisted. She tells Stella to move out of the way as she also needs to see if her dress is on right, but Stella simply dismisses her, even more so when Bloom fixes her ribbon. Luckily though, before Flora looks like she is about to blow a fuse, Stella moves out of the way, leaving the mirror free to use. However, just as she gets to use the mirror, she and the Winx must rush down to help decorate the ballroom, so she, Stella and Tecna quickly change back into their normal clothes and head out, leaving Bloom behind to catch up with them when she is ready.

Flora is seen later in the ballroom just as the Traditional Meeting Dance is about to begin, where she fawns over how cute the Specialists look before Bloom grabs hers and the Winx's attention and tells them of the spell the Trix have concocted to sabotage the Dance. Thankfully, the girls are able to cast a joint counterspell to dispel of whatever spell or curse the Trix put on the Specialists' trunk of gifts just before it is opened and presented to the other Alfea Fairies. With the witches' plans thwarted, the girls decide to use the Dance as a way to celebrate their latest victory.

In the beginning of the following issue, Flora can be seen listening to each of her friends' tales of how the Dance had played out for them. Unlike them though, none of the Specialists at the Dance seemed to have caught her interests as Tecna had an interesting first meeting with the awkward but equally smart Timmy, Musa found herself attracted to the standoffish and mysterious Riven, Stella played a flirty game of cat-and-mouse with Prince Sky, and Bloom already had her eye on the humble and shy blonde squire, Brandon. Regardless, Flora does not appear bothered by that fact, appearing to be more eager to hear her friends' stories and continue helping them out in their classes, like she does during their outdoor training exercise the very next morning. Unfortunately, Flora's easygoing kindness makes her a bit of a pushover as she does nothing to stop Stella from accepting Sky's offer for a joyride despite being in the middle of class and seems to be more compliant in covering for her than Musa and Tecna, as both had to be guilt-tripped into doing so. However, she is not happy with being made to cover for Stella and she is the one who proposes that Bloom go with Brandon to look for her and Sky before they run the risk of getting caught.

As the situation with Stella and Sky escalates, Flora, Tecna and Musa are presumably given some sort of pass as they do not appear to be in any sort of trouble by the time Bloom returns to Alfea with Stella by sunset. Flora continues acting as a mediator of sorts for the group (mainly between Stella and Tecna) by pointing out a positive result in Stella's otherwise reckless actions: that the whole ordeal has brought out Bloom's powers, which prove to be extraordinary enough to work on trolls despite none of them having gone through proper training to do so yet. However, even she remains mad at Stella's actions, as she jumps at her and starts up a pillow fight when Stella swoons over Sky by insisting that she may be unable to refuse him if he offers to take her out again. Flora's bond with her new friends continues to grow from that point on as, in A Friend for Bloom, she comes to learn of each of their reasons for choosing to attend Alfea and hear the full story of what led Bloom to Magix. The issue afterwards, Prisoner of the Dark, also shows Flora and the girls worrying deeply for Bloom when she accidentally upsets Bloom to the point of running away, leading to her going missing and being trapped within a tree by the nefarious Trix. Luckily, it is thanks to the Winx's care for Bloom that sets her free and even allows for the tree she had been trapped in to bloom and flourish again.

After Bloom lands herself a waitressing job in A Job for Bloom at a café in Magix called the White Horse, Flora, the Winx and Specialists begin to use the café as a regular hangout spot for their weekends and days off to show their support.

Nothing substantial happens to Flora alone as she continues playing the supportive, almost motherly role within the group as they continue going on various misadventures while trying to get through school. In cases like in The Swamp Monster, she tries to help the girls understand and appreciate both sides of nature (beautiful and scary), while, in instances similar to the beginning of Heart of a Fairy, she will act as the soft voice of reason for the girls; often bouncing off of Tecna's more rational and sometimes harsh reasoning. One such instance occurs in The Revelation when Bloom and Stella become so devastated and heartbroken about the truth surrounding the two boys they had come to love to the point where they refuse to leave their rooms to eat. Thankfully though, Flora, Musa and Tecna are able to coax the two out of their rooms to go for a walk by the lake to lift their spirits.

Flora makes sure to check on her two friends during their walk and, when the girls run into the Specialists, Flora openly worries over whether leaving Bloom alone would be a good idea given her emotional state. She only leaves Bloom and Stella to deal with Sky and Brandon to board the submarine with Tecna, Musa and Timmy after Tecna convinces her that their two friends need to be left alone to properly sort things out. Though, even during the submarine ride, Flora worries for Bloom and hopes that Sky will manage to find the right words to say to her so that things will not become worse between them. Things quickly become hectic when a monster emerges from the lakebed near some sunken ruins the group uncovered, which prompts Flora into releasing a few magical seeds to grow into vines strong enough to bind the mysterious monster for long enough to allow Timmy to steer the submarine back to the surface safely. Flora and her friends then rush back to Alfea upon realizing that the monster is being drawn to the school for unknown reasons but, even when they make it in time and try to combat it, the monster simply saps everyone of their magic—everyone except Bloom.

Realizing this, Flora, the Winx and even the rest of the Alfea student body and faculty, join their magic with Bloom's to finally destroy the monster. Unfortunately, it all ends on a more somber note as Bloom, despite being the key to defeating the magic-absorbing monster, takes it upon herself to leave Alfea and go back to Earth, believing that she has no place in Magix. And so, with no real way to convince her to stay, Flora and the girls bid Bloom farewell, assuring her that she can always count on them and even come back. By Dragon's Flame however, it seems as though Bloom has given up on her dreams of becoming a fairy, as she has been gone and has not tried contacting any of them for two weeks.

The girls try cheering themselves up by spending the rest of the day out in Magix City, however, they learn from Greta, Bloom's old boss, that she had been followed by a witch with strange, wild hair while leaving. Flora, Tecna and Musa are immediately left behind when Stella frantically teleports herself to Bloom's home in Gardenia upon realizing the witch in question to be Stormy, which naturally causes Flora to worry for Bloom's safety as Tecna and Musa try to assure her that Stella was simply overreacting at the chance to see Bloom and convince her to come back to Alfea.

Later on into the night however, the situation is revealed to be much more dire than any of them would have suspected as, when Stella returns to Alfea with Bloom in tow, Flora and the girls learn that Bloom is the princess and sole survivor of the lost kingdom of Domino, and that, as its last royal heir, she was in possession of the all powerful Dragon's Flame, which the Trix had stripped from her during her leave. To make matters worse, the Trix had already taken over Cloud Tower and have demanded that Magix surrender to them or face their wrath by the time the Winx have learned of and attempted to warn Faragonda of the situation. To turn the situation around and stop the Trix from conquering Magix, Flora and the girls journey to the frozen wasteland of Domino to learn of a way to help Bloom regain her lost powers through the school's Simulation Chamber.

The Winx run into a few snags during their trek in the form of a giant Snow Monster and almost lose Bloom, but manage to uncover the frozen remains of the realm's royal palace. Additionally, when they all enter the palace, they are met by Daphne, the disembodied spirit of Bloom's older sister who had been watching over her since she was sent to Earth as an infant, and learn that Bloom's birth parents are still alive somewhere within the Magic Dimension.

With Bloom's resolve now restored, the girls seek a way off the frozen wastelands and, as if on cue, are rescued by the Specialists, who were notified of their trip. Unfortunately, during the ride back to Alfea, the girls learn that the Trix had destroyed Red Fountain and cleared out all of Magix City while they were away; leaving Alfea is the last oppositional force standing.

Once they get back to Alfea, Flora, Tecna and Musa stay behind to help defend the school alongside the surviving Specialists and faculty members while Bloom, Stella, Sky, Brandon and Knut attempt to sneak into Cloud Tower to allow for Bloom to steal her powers back. The Winx wish each other good luck with one big hug before splitting off; Flora transforming into her Winx alongside Tecna and Musa to fend off the encroaching Army of Darkness. The War for Magix extends into the following issue, as the girls later gain the help of the Cloud Tower Witches and faculty when they manage to escape capture from the Trix. However, with Bloom still missing, the Winx have no other options but to continue fighting, hoping that their friend is on her way with the Dragon's Flame back in her possession.

Their prayers are seemingly answered when, just as the Trix make their appearance on the battlefield, so too does Bloom having fully regained the powers that were once lost to her. With their hopes restored, Flora and the girls transform once again to aid Bloom as she is kept busy dealing with the Trix's leader, Icy, and it surprisingly does not take long to put Darcy and Stormy down. Eventually, Bloom is able to defeat Icy, subsequently defeating the entire Army of Darkness and saving all of Magix. The Winx then welcome their friend with open arms as she returns to Alfea confident in her abilities.

In Moonlight, it is revealed that the Winx's memories of both the War and their constant run-ins with the Trix that had lead up to it were all copied into a DVD series that Faragonda plans to use as material for a class concerning the dangers of misused magic. Flora begins reflecting on all the hardships they faced during what was supposed to be their freshman year, and later joins the girls in cheering Bloom up, believing their bond to have grown stronger than ever before. Additionally, for having played key roles in the War for Magix, the Winx are awarded a special mission in the mountains to collect moonlight from Crystal Lake and though she is excited, Flora believes that Faragonda gave them the mission for an express purpose, so she reminds the girls that they must not let the headmistress down, especially when she allows them to conduct said mission with the Specialists.

Despite acting all stern, Flora plays her usual role as soft mediator to both the Winx and Specialists on the day of the trip; starting even as they board the Specialists' shuttle when she is seated in between Musa and Riven, who begin arguing with each other almost immediately after the latter makes an off-handed comment about their mission being nothing but "girly business." In fact, during their ride to the base of the mountains, Flora tries to help Musa understand that Riven is only acting out to get noticed as she believes all boys to be, but she does not seem to be able to help alleviate the situation as Musa confesses to believing that Riven only acts the way he does specifically because he believes himself to be better than everyone else.

Flora cannot do much else to help her friend as, by the time Musa admits to this, the group makes it to the base of the mountains and comes across a small village shortly after landing. However, the group is quickly driven out of the village the moment they reveal their intent of climbing the mountains on the day a full moon is scheduled to appear, leaving them with no other option but to keep moving forward. To make matters worse, a strong hailstorm quickly blankets the mountains right after the group is too far from Darkstone Village to go back for shelter and, in their struggle to find shelter in the forests, Flora is separated from Stella, Brandon, Musa and Riven as she, Bloom, Sky, Tecna and Timmy get lost.

Flora's group ends up walking a narrow ridge just beside an overflowing canal and try to keep themselves together by tying a rope everyone their waists, but their safety plan almost causes them all to be dragged into the canal when Timmy loses his footing and causes both him and Tecna to fall. Thankfully though, just as it looks like all five of them are going to slip into the canal, a young man appears sliding down the cliffside behind them and helps them pull both Tecna and Timmy back to safety. The man then introduces himself as Karel, a lone woodcutter, and though he is still a stranger to them, Flora persuades Sky into accepting Karel's invitation to spend the night in his cottage after saving two of their friends. Though, despite being almost eager in accepting Karel's hospitality, Flora remains wary of the young woodcutter as she appears worried over his strict rule of them leaving first thing in the morning and never coming back. And so, later into the night as her friends settle into Karel's home, Flora sits down with Karel to thank him for stepping in when he did, as well as for providing them with shelter for the night. She then goes on to question if he minds living all by himself, making note of how Darkstone Village was holding a party he could have gone to earlier that day, but Karel remains silent. She then takes notice of the iron bars keeping all of his windows locked shut but, before she can say anymore, Karel reiterates that they need to leave first thing in the morning, presumably ending the conversation as, by morning, Flora does not say much else.

After her friends leave and they find and regroup with Stella, Brandon, Musa and Riven, Flora reveals that she had been thinking about Karel since the moment they left his cottage. Though Stella believes it to be due to her getting her heart broken, Flora confesses to have been getting a strange feeling from the young woodcutter, unable to shake the feeling that he really is very lonely.

Regardless of how she feels though, Flora and her friends find Crystal Lake and camp out to wait for the full moon. When it rises to the fullest, she and the Winx harvest the moonlight from the lake and decide to trek down the mountain since the light of the full moon makes it bright enough for them to see everything. However, just as the group begins heading down the mountain, they are attacked by a pack of wolves gone crazy thanks to the full moon.

As the Winx run down the mountain having been made to leave the Specialists behind to fend off the wolves, Flora gets separated from her friends as two wolves slip past the Specialists' defenses to chase after her. Flora comes across Karel's cottage and rushes for it, begging for Karel to open up so she can escape the frenzied wolves.

Just when she believes that all is lost, the front door of the cottage creaks open, allowing Flora to slip inside and close it shut on the wolves, but something is still off. In fact, all the lights in the cottage remain off as she is told that she should not have come back. Still trying to see Karel's face, Flora pulls out her vial of concentrated moonlight, only to accidentally trigger Karel's transformation into a werewolf.

As she pieces all of Karel's strange behavior together, Flora is backed into a corner of the cottage as Karel tries to fight off his animalistic urges to keep from attacking her. With no other options, Flora manages to scrounge up enough magic to create a barrier made of thorny vines to block Karel off and make her escape. As she does so, she apologizes to Karel all while trying to keep from crying. Eventually, Flora makes it to the base of the mountain, reunites with her friends and heads back to Alfea with their mission declared as a success. The next day, Flora immediately begins studying up on Karel's condition, believing there to be some kind of magical cure for it. Additionally, Flora had made it so her thorny vines would bloom by the time the full moon passed to remind Karel that she would eventually come back into his life to truly help him.

Flora falls back into the background for the rest of the season as she continues going on various misadventures with the Winx, like their journey to the prison realm of a forgotten king in King Nobody, and, on occasion, the Specialists, like halfway into Dragon's Land.
