I don't really play dominators, so a dominator specialist might be able to do a better job than me, but I put together an IO build that gives you almost perma hasten (perma, if you want to go with the Ageless barrier, but I'd recommend just going Rebirth for the regen heal, since there's no inherent heal in the Plant/Fire), perma dom, and >32.5% defense to all positions.
The defense means that you'll need to carry around a tray of purple inspirations (bought from nurses at hospitals, or from contacts), and just one will softcap you to everything (i.e. everything has its lowest chance to hit you). I tried to keep the build as cheap as possible whilst still achieving 32.5% to all positions and perma dom - using only one purple set, and the main costs being LotG.
It does seem to be really nice damage, and with perma dom it's a pretty decent mezzer too. The trade off is that you'll need to use beast run or ninja run, because I never put travel powers in my builds. You can switch something out to get a travel power, if that matters a lot to you, but I find ninja run + swift + hurdle + sprint plenty fast on my 50.
Again, I'm no dom expert, so maybe this is all built totally incorrectly.

Here's my plant/fire/fire permadom build (live) if it gives you any ideas. One key, even with SOs/IOs, is slotting Roots for damage not for immob. It does great spammable AOE damage.

This set is not perma, you are missing 3 luck of the gamblers and hasten isn't even permanent!
Hey, just thought I'd weigh in since I have a Plant/Fire dom that I really love (my first Villain 50 actually).
I'm going to assume since you posted an SO build that you are not rolling in INF and are looking for build advice that isn't all about perma-dom, soft-cap nastiness. So, with that in mind here are some things I noticed:
1. You took Incinerate and Flurry, which makes me think that you want to be at melee range, but you didn't grab Combustion. You should consider either picking it up or dropping the melee attacks.
2. Defense is one of those things that doesn't really make a difference unless you have quite a bit of it (25%+ in my experience). Maneuvers is giving you 4% for 4 precious Enhancement Slots. I'd drop it unless you plan on getting 20ish% more defense from stuff like Weave, Hover/CJ or Set IOs.
3. Should you have some cash a very cheap way to improve your build is the Thunderstrike set, it can be slotted in Flares, Fire Blast and the amazingly great Blaze. At 4 slots it's got Recovery, Ranged Defense and Accuracy all of which are great. Slap 1 set into each of those three powers and you can go down to 1 Accuracy SO in most of the rest of your powers.
Hope that helps.
I tried a couple controllers, didnt care for them, but I figured I'd give a Dom a try, for more damage, and read that Plant/Fire is a great first time Dom combo.. So here goes my attempt at a dom build, I used a couple old guides on how to slot the holds, all critques and help would be much appreciated
