I have a theory. It's not canon or anything like that, but it's a fun thought. DIO gets everything from the Joestar bloodline, so I think the World's true ability is to copy powers from the living Joestars. We've seen him use Hermit Purple, and a Crazy Diamond-esque healing power to fix Pucci's foot. Star Platinum 'always' had the time-stop ability, but DIO was able to copy and replicate it. Hell, the flower and vine imagery and the flesh buds could even be Holy's unawakened ability. It doesn't show off Stone Free's power because she's the only Jojo stand that wasn't alive at the time.
