Defeat the guards and the second phase will begin, and it's the same as before, with the shooting flowers and Ivy opening her pod to laugh at you and get a batarang to the face.

Any time I saw a guard next to the edge I tried to kick him over. Here's a tip that helped me a lot: run up to the guards as they are dropped on the platform and start attacking them, and half the time they will be knocked over the edge and out of the fight. They will take a small amount of damage if they are caught in the patches of roots, but I also fought them while dodging the roots (this is why I suggested familiarizing yourself with the root eruption patterns during the easier first half of the fight).

Avoid these long enough and the pod holding Ivy will move higher, and the flowers flanking her will shoot red energy balls at Batman, you know, because it's a plant.
