Frayedspikes split from their ancestor the tusovinda, and have spread further north. It lives exclusively in tropical areas with high annual rainfall. It has fewer leaves than its ancestor, but those leaves it did keep are much larger (and much wider in particular.) Frayedspike leaves and the veins within them slope downwards, forcing excess rain to slip off of them. Some rain stays on the plant though, thanks to adaptations it shares with it’s ancestor like a water-absorbent coating. They get their name for distinctive feather like structure emanating from their thorns, almost like the frayed edges of a carpet. These evolved to increasing their surface area in the dark forests they call home, and get increasingly complex as they age. Flower poles rise from the center of the flora, allowing it to pollinate by wind and produce small fruits, which dry and eventually expel the seeds inside into the winds before falling off the plant. The flower poles are taller than those of the tusovinda, in order to spread seeds further away from the parent.
