Ancestor:Descendants:

The clusterblades split from its ancestor, the polarblades and has adapted to life in Barlowe-Dixon Temperate Rainforest. As one of the first flora to recolonize the region it quickly covered the near barren soil. It grows many more leaves than its ancestor in order to utilize the grater amount of sunlight it gets. It has lost the waxy covering on the leaves but they are still as sharp as ever to deter herbivores from eating them. Its roots too have adapted to live in the much wetter soil and thrive in the warmer environment. Other than that they are mostly unchanged from their ancestors.
