Ovi Balloon Tree

The Ovi Balloon Tree split from the Sky Tree when some of the Sky Trees, over a period of many years, got blown by tropical storms into Ovi Island. With plentiful rainfall, the water-dependent Sky Tree soon adapted to the island, and finally touched down after its long time in the air. Its leaves have gotten bigger, allowing it to photosynthesize better, and it has also gained thin, fleshy, photosynthesizing strips on its balloon, giving it even more sunlight and energy. This extra energy has allowed its asexual budding to become faster, the roots of the tree spanning far and wide, and wherever there is enough sunlight, a new one will pop up. Although you may only see one tree for a whole half-mile, there is a good chance that the next one you see is actually part of the first.

Another adaption was needed for the harsh winters of the island, and the tree has developed a way to "shed" its balloon. This balloon will either die, or eventually, after growing enough in the sky, will come back down to land, creating another tree. The Ovi Balloon Tree is very efficient, and it has created small "forests" all over the island.
