Reproduction Sexual (berries and puffy spores, airborne spores released from pods, Flower), Asexual Budding


The typophillion is an off-shoot from its ancestor, the violettail. Since the gamma ray wiped out most plants, the typophillion was able to spread out to different biomes. Unlike its ancestor, the typophillion has grown significantly taller than its ancestor. It has also evolved two "heads" instead of one, the leaves have spread out to all over its stalk. It no longer does as much asexual budding as its ancestor did.

One extremely important evolution was that it has three ways to sexually reproduce. One way is that it produces two bright orange flowers on its "heads", which the flower ketter pollinates. The second way is after it has been pollinated by the flower ketter, the flower modifies into a pod, which explodes airborne spores into the air. The third way is after the pod explodes, the "heads" grows two orange berries that have many hard-shelled seeds. The berries are eaten, after they have been "pooped" out, the seeds begin to grow. They depend on the flower ketter for pollination.
