Raincatching Sune

The raincatching sune replaced its ancestor and mover into the tropics. It hasn't moved into the woodlands due to not enough rain. Due to there being no trees in the tropical rainforest it quickly took up the empty niche of trees. It has become specifically adapted to its environment in many ways. For instance, its original leaves have morphed into bowl-shaped 'leaf' that collects rainwater excessively. These 'birdbaths' can provide animals to nest atop of them, swim in them, and many other things. Its spore sack now has the ability to close its opening when it rains, so that its spore material doesn't get wet. So that it could still photosynthesize properly, it has developed black leaves that hang below the branches of the raincatching sune. Its roots now appear like a mangrove's roots, so that it survives when the floods come.
