Purplevine
Purplevine split from its ancestor and spread through the tropics of Glicker. It has a longer stem and creeps vertically or horizontally, producing adventitious roots at growth nodes capable of sticking to surfaces like the "bark" of large crystal flora or growing into soil. At apical meristems, one of the typical 3 leaf appendages will begin to develop its own meristem and become a stem while the other two grow wide and flat. This maximizes photosynthetic area and allows further dispersal when they wither and detach, growing into a new individual if conditions are right. Genetic material can be exchanged upon physical contact like its ancestor, and this occurs more often since vines are creeping and may intermingle.
In the forests, purplevines can form thick carpets on the ground or the roots and branches of crystal flora. If the main stem of climbing individuals is severed, they will send new roots to reach back into the soil. They can survive being severed, but growth is stunted without access to soil nutrients. Because of this, herbivory can keep this species from becoming too dominant in most areas. Populations also exist in the savannas of Glicker in shaded valleys or under thickets of crystal flora, but they grow more slowly and often die during the dry season.
