Ancestor:Descendants:

The windglobe replaced the stickyglobes on the eastern beaches of Wright. It has now become a mega-multicellular plant. Not only are the globes made of their own cells but those globe act like cells of their own. They are now all one single organism made up of different functioning smaller sub-organisms. Some of these cells only grow for the top hydrogen filled globes that kept it aloft in the air while others inter connected into three chains. The the bottom ones extract water an nutrients from the soil. The outside are no longer sticky and they are held together via cells now. There are also special sex cell clusters that bud off spores to make new ones. If their tethers are broken off it will float around until it lands again. Once landed it will regrow the chains and root-like cells.
