Jellloppy

The jelloppy replaced its ancestor the protecoloppy. Without any sunlight for millions of years it eventually lost its ability to photosynthesize and its pigment. They appear purplish due to its purple sap and its roots appear reddish from the hematite and rust it absorbs. Like its ancestor the spores are protected inside an outer shell. This shell falls off when the spore matures and then regrows again o make more spores. They grow best in areas either rich in hematite or where organic matter gathers. Thus they they are typically found at the bottom of pits and holes. They need little soil to survive and their roots can even stretch across the surface of rocks.
