If you're magic users are not powerful enough yet, your party is certainly faster. Take to your heels, and run!
These hostile flora are the reason I'm glad I concentrated on building up magic skills.
I think it's best to go hunting them in the day, because you can then see a hostile branch waving about from far enough away to take some preparatory action. At night, they're onto your party before you see them, and then the party is poisoned, gagging and pretty useless.
When my magic users were strong enough to stand up and face these things, instead of running like scared little bunnies and diving in the castle moat, fortunately, they'd split up so I only had to face one at a time. In the meantime, the magic users had levelled a few times in the Castle and gained some long range area spells, Firestorm and Meteor Storm. That made the shrubbery sit up and take notice!
And if you think these things are nasty, wait for the Jungle Lillies!
