Ancestor:Descendants:

The tobeeflor is a new split from the orbiflor. It evolved a new fruit, which develops several protrusions where before were only the flower rods. Tobeeflors can grow more than a fruit at once, with one being matured and sprouting buds while the other is nearly matured and with all the flowers opened. It will keep one or more immature fruits since they give an additional water supply to the plant. Fully grown, it has an odd shape and hold worm-like flowers.

These flowers are made to resemble flying worms and attract those trying to mate. Along the petals are the stamens; if a worm approaches or land over the flower to drink from the nectar column, pollen will stick to their neck hairs and then be carried to other flowers. The female part of the flower is on the round thing resembling an eye. In this way, they will attract mainly wuraybees and hagulbees, which find a good food source on them.

Another change from its ancestor is the stalk; it is thicker and can hold the heavy fruit with more safety, until it is totally developed. When filled with seeds, the fruit will detach from the stalk and roll. Each time that a projection of the fruit collides with the ground, it smash and spread some pulp with seeds inside. Tobeeflor fruits have a pleasing flavor and seeds that resist to digestive tract of creatures, also being a good source of water to fauna. In this way, creatures will eat it and spread tobeeflors to the nearest areas.

They have deep roots and can reach up to 3 m tall. Being big, fruits are eaten by one or more creatures, which do this usually when the fruit already is on ground.
