Ancestor:Descendants:

The orbit voltflora replaced its ancestor volcanic voltflora. Due to its isolated nature being surrounded by glaciers it caused it to go through island gigantism and grew to 10 times its ancestors size. Growing so large and made of mostly iron it got hit by lighting all the time. So it developed a lighting rod to collect the electricity for lighting and store it into its batteries. This along with all its ancestors energy gathering methods allowed it to store up vast amounts of power.

The power generated helped launch its new multi-stage rocket seeds. These seeds once launched go through 2 stages of burring. Inside each stage are its own biological version of rocket fuel. Both of those factors allowed for the first Sagan 4 species to reach orbit. The seeds are air tight and can float in orbit for months before falling down. While they can land just about anywhere only the rich soil and geothermal activity of the volcanic biomes allow them to grow. Thus they have spread to all the volcanic biomes on Sagan 4. In addition they have spread some hitch hiker microbes with them. They include: rust mold and rusty symbiocell.
