A plant root, or the main protagonist in the Hunger Games series.
What does the Katniss plant symbolize in the hunger games?
In the first book Katniss' Father tells her "You can survive as long as you can find your self." He was talking about the plant but it has a deeper meaning. It is saying once Katniss found herself (The Mockingjay) she defeated the Capitol, thus in a way "surviving."
