Ancestor:Descendants:

The giant baloonarch split from its ancestor, the balloon arch. Now with a passage through Krakow Rocky, Huggs Rainforest connected with Krakow Temperate Forest and the hydrogen balloon seeds were able to float over to the very barren rainforest. Once their they thrived so much they grew to twice their ancestors size. In such a wet environment they no longer depend upon fire for reproduction. However they are still fire resistant because once an awhile sine they are tall they get hit by lighting. They also now have one central balloon which helps holdup the arch and relive some weight from it. They have no leaves but their trunks can absorb sunlight.
