    Default Charm/dominate Plants

    Are there any spells that are basically charm or dominate person for Druids in any source book? If not then what would be a balanced home-brewed spell of that nature?
    Why on earth do druids and monks have diplomacy?

    Plant creatures have
    Immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects).
    so even Dominate Monster won't work.

    We do, however, have Speak with Plants, Command Plants and Control Plants for getting plant creatures to fight on your team. All in the Player's Handbook.

    Just make it transmutation to get around the mind-affecting descriptor?

    Hey, if they can do it with orb spells (making it conjuration to justify them ignoring sr)...

    Initiate of Nature lets you rebuke animals and plant creatures.

    [Edit]: It's a feat from PGtF.
