The Splatterbulbs are not disappearing when you destroy the plant and a lot of them are placed over seams/exploreable spawn points so you can't click on them. (Scraggleways/Ring 97)
Also a lot of the plants are being put in locations where you can't physically reach or interact with them such as rubble placeables which feels seems to defeat the object of what the system was probably intended to encourage.
It's currently impossible to place them inside of walls etc, it seems many of those that were placed by the retired bad apple aren't de-spawning when they get destroyed even by dm's. I've witnessed at least three get destroyed and then seen them come back the next reset.
