The River Palm has adapted to live in a river. Beside living permanently in water it's really much the same as its ancestor. To defend itself from stickyballs, which can be attached to a River Palm by Wingworms, it pumps water into the the little pools developed from the segments. When such a pool is full it will overflow, thus washing all the stickyballs off from the segments. Even the leaves can be dropped, when they are infected with Stickyballs. Because the River Palm can reproduce by budding, the dropped leave can grow a hole new plant somewhere else as soon as the stickyballs are washed off. The River Palm also can throw off the two extra trunks at the base to reproduce asexually. The tip of the trunks is filled with air, so that they can cover a big distance until they root on their new home.
