The sungrove split from its ancestor, the sunstalk, and adapted to the semi-aqatic lifestyle of Irinya River and Irinya Swamp. Its roots became much more developed and help live it out of the water much like Earth's mangroves. Its top leaves have become more complex as well, having leaves buds on each leaf, thus creating more surface area to collect sunlight. It can also follow the sun with its leaves thus maximizing the amount of sunlight it gets. Like its ancestor it will shoot its orange spores out of its spore chamber at high pressures to help jet them into the wind and thus spread along the river.
