Lotusworm Shrub

The Lotusworm Shrub split from the Lotusworm. It now sticks its head in the dirt and has its root-like tongue absorb water and minerals from the soul. It props its body up and spreads is leaf-wings to gather up sunlight. Its butt now exposes its sexual organ with a yellow flow-like exoskeleton petals. Inside are its Sweet nectar and pollen-like male gametes. They depend upon the Nectar Batworm to pollinate them. They drink the nectar and get some of the pollen-like gametes to stick to them. Once they are taken to another "flower" it will fertilize the eggs and then they will grow from eggs to larva. Once in larva form they will seek out a place to plant themselves in and grow forever in this spot.

The large circular leaves still follow the sun gathering energy from it. Its digestive track has atrophied and is almost non existent. These enhancements have allowed the Lotusworm Shrub to become greater in size but still coexist with its ancestor.
