Ancestor:Descendants:

The arbour supershroom split from its ancestor. Some branching supershrooms grew only support stalks instead of miniature shrooms. This might have been their end had they completely relied on reproduction through spores. Luckily they still had their very successful branching method, and thus the arbour supershroom developed. From each cap, 1-3 stalks will grow into new shrooms; the rest will grow to the ground. Due to the better support, this shroom can become taller than its ancestor. One arbour supershroom structure, composed of hundreds or even thousands of separate shrooms, can cover enormous stretches of ground.
