Before Adam fell the Earth and Garden of Eden was in a perfect state. After they left the Garden did the Earth become a terrestrial state, like it is now. During that celestial state, and I assume the stages of Creation up until the Fall, plants most likely did not need water to survive, so it can be assumed that since the waters were created after the plants, the system that sustained them was a more celestial system, and not water/chlorophyll as we know today. Perhaps. I just realized something about the Creation. Before Adam fell the Earth and Garden of Eden was in a perfect state.

I referenced Elder Milton R. Hunter's work entitled "Pearl of Great Price Commentary." It isnt' set up as a verse-by-verse commentary, but rather in a storyline. However, it does compare the account of the creation in Abraham to that in Moses verse-by-verse. I'm sure there are more resources out there on this subject. You make a good observation that the plants and herbs were created before the water. That makes one wonder then, how the "grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree" could have been created and survived if it was not for water. The plot thickens!!
