Ancestor:Descendants:

The gateway bubbleweed split from its ancestor, the purple sea bubbleweed. It lives much the same as its ancestor did except it specifically lives at the mouth of the sea cave. Some bubbles get wash to the back of the cave and make their way to open spots with sunlight shining down. There they will grow as well. They compete for space with the Gateway Shrub but there is usually enough space for both of them to survive.
