The hand-branch fruitail replaced its ancestor in the Huggs Temperate Forest and spread throughout the temperate and cold biomes to the south. It has grown twice the size of its ancestor. Also in order to live through the winter frost it has developed gigantic leaves that are covered with a waxy coating.
It evolved its ancestor's reproduction mechanism further. Instead of having a seasonally changing reproduction technique it has two main branches. The first branch grows hard nuts all year long that are packed with seeds which explode and spread and airborne spores. This branch is often shaped like a hand and given the tree part its name. The other branch is multi-purposed. In the spring and autumn it grows flowers that are pollinated by the flower ketter that followed it to its new biomes. In the winter and summer it grows fleshy fruits that fall to the ground, get eaten by local herbivores, and are spread by them after going through their digestive system.
