If I understand correctly about the table you want to make, I've done it with Animals#Animals_List already, so I can certainly help with that. It's done by transcluding a template instead of transcluding sections. I'm not an admin, just an editor, so if you still want to request the extension, talk to Zesty. Ask him about making changes to the CSS class as well.

I really like the new layout of the plant infoboxes. The horizontal lines are a nice touch. The font in the header is a bit big though. I would try to be consistent with other infoboxes. Most infoboxes use Template:Infobox/Thing. The header for that is Template:Entry/Top. I'm not sure what exactly specifies the font/size but it should be in there.

When viewing on a smartphone I found that long information text can flow between the two infoboxes. It doesn't usually happen, but to see it on a PC go to Strawberry plant and make the browser very narrow. Simply putting the information text after the infoboxes fixes it. By the way, can and should the two infoboxes be one infobox?

Another thing about the header is maybe try a color besides gray. Maybe some shade of green, for plants?

One key thing I found is to take full advantage of the Properties feature of Wikimedia. Once the data is entered, you can display it however you want. It's what you'd need to make that table. Actually that data was already being defined by the Define|Plant template in the previous versions of the plant and tree pages. That Define template is the very heart of setting properties. Well, I'll start looking into it and write up another message.
