In the main window or the plant mover, the focused plant is the first plant you clicked on in the list of plants or in the main window drawing area. If only one plant is selected, that is the focused plant. When you add more selected plants (using Control-click or Shift-click or by rubber-banding in the drawing area), the focused plant does not change. You can change the focused plant by deselecting the selected plants, then clicking on the plant you want to focus on. 

In general,
