Ancestor:Descendants:

The crystalpine split from its ancestor, the pagoda crystal. Due to island gigantism it grew to towering heights. Its stacking crystals allow it to get extreme height and sunlight. It has expressed some of its dormant genes and produces more types of chloroplasts. Once changing from green to orange. This gives it crystals these colors. The chitin based cyrstals are both lightweight and hard so not all herbivores can eat them. Like other crystals, its fungus like inside consume the detritus in the soil.
