Glassgrass

The glassgrass split from it's ancestor, the glaalgaes genus group. It has doubled in height and has moved into the barren Martyk Plains. Appearing somewhat like it's distant ancestor, the pioneer glasstwist, it's stalks are now separate from each other. And since it's stalks are no longer thick and rigid like icicles, it's stalks now sway easily in the wind, easily digested by herbivores. These stalks also now develop sexual spores on the tip of each stalk that fertilize in the wind with spores of the opposite sex. It's roots are also much more efficient in absorbing nutrients and helping out the nitro cycle, with many stick-like roots emerging from the bulb. It's tough mycelium base that quickly regrows stalks make it almost impossible to kill this flora by consumption alone; that is left to annual wildfires, which fertilize the soil for new glassgrass to grow upon. This combination of tough roots, rapid asexual budding, and pollination have lead the glassgrass to rapidly take hold on the barren soil, creating fields of cyan throughout the plains.
