Apparently it's a plant.
I guess you also know that it's being used for the main character in "The Hunger Games".Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?

The character of the Hunger Games says that she is named after that plant. At one point she remembers that her father once told her, "Find yourself [the plant katniss] and you'll never go hungry" (paraphrasing from memory).Also interesting, but not explicitly discussed in the book, is that the plant is shaped like an arrow, and that is her weapon of choice.
