An awakened plant gains the ability to move its limbs, roots, vines, creepers, and so forth, and it has senses similar to a human’s.Huh... what's the new awakened plant creature's Con score ? 3d6, 4d6, 6d6, 8d6... ? I consider that this is not an animated object nor a construct, but a living creature of the Plant type.

Talisman 04-12-06, 10:56 AM	I'd go with base 11 for a random plant, increased with size as (Psi)SeveredHead suggests. Plants technically already have Con scores, since they're alive. For a PC plant, or reoccuring NPC, I'd roll the standard 4d6-drop-one for ability scores. Modify this as you see fit. Some plants are pretty fragile, while others are tough as nails. Is your druid awakening an orchid (Con 6) or ragweed (Con 25)? :P
