Sticky Rootower

The sticky rootower replaced its ancestor in the Wright Rainforest. A weird mutation that delayed the separation time of the new budding sub-tower and eventually made some of the sub-towers not disconnect. The higher towers of course had greater chance of survival being larger and higher and therefore close to the light in the shaded rainforest. It has evolved more powerful roots for better gather of nutrients as well as a set of air roots. These roots that originate from the roots of the sub-towers provide water from the moist rainforest’s air and allows the sticky rootower to even grow partly on rocks or other rigid areas. It still reproduces by breaking full parts, sometimes a few sub-towers long, that disconnect from the main body and grow into a new tower. The highest recorded tower has reached 4 meters high and disconnected the very next day. Still most of the towers disconnect reaching about 1 meter tall colony.
