# Instance Renderer
The `FloraInstanceRenderer` is a component that enables Flora rendering for a prefab instance with a `LODGroup` or `MeshRenderer`.
Adding this component to the **root object** of a prefab instance will automatically register it with the [FloraSystem](/scripts/system.md) and render the instance using GPU instancing.
Disabling or removing the component will:
* Unregister the instance from Flora
* Reactivate Unity’s built-in `MeshRenderer` or `LODGroup` rendering path
***
### Properties
#### InstanceHandle
When the component is active, this property holds the `FloraInstanceHandle` for the instance.
* Use this handle to interact with the [FloraSystem](/scripts/system.md)
* If the component is disabled or destroyed, the handle becomes invalid
