The rainforest carnofern split from its ancestor, the beach carnofern and has adapted to life in the Barlowe-Dixon Temperate Rainforest. Now in a much warmer and wetter environment it has grown twice as large and has many branches. Each branch grows smaller branches with its signature brush-like leaves. Un-like its ancestor they are no longer lithotrophs and gain all their energy from photosynthesis.
They have regained some ancient traits such as growing pink flowers which produce both pollen and nectar. After being pollinated by the carnofern flugwurm they will grow into red fruit that are consumed by frugivores and in turn spread by their dung to new areas.
During the winter the branches will fall off and a cap will grow over the the top of the trunk. This builds up over the years allowing the trunk to grow taller and taller. When spring comes along the top will open up and allow for new branches to grow.
