Penumbra Fuzzpalm

The penumbra fuzzpalm split from its ancestor the fuzzpalm. It has moved inland and has grown to great heights due to the rich soil, abundant rain and equatorial sunlight. These giants dwarf any other flora around and dominate the environment in its growth cycle. Those that get to reach full height can be 100 years old or more. Unlike its ancestor it now has branches splitting off from its main trunk. They produce thousands of light blue pollen spores at the beginning of each year which are collected by the fuzzy leaves of other penumbra fuzzpalms for fertilization. Once enough pollen has been ejected an individual will begin growing darker blue berries in the vacated space; each berry take a week to grow and will fall off the parent tree in 2 weeks time. The berries are sweet and help attract fauna to the area.
