fire flower

Burning botanical bloom

A fire flower is a power-up in the Mario video game franchise that grants the ability to throw fireballs.

The term occasionally appears in fantasy contexts for flowers associated with flame or heat, but the gaming reference dominates: I finally grabbed the fire flower and cleared the level.
