-- shoot straight upward - 1 thin trunk, on top a bud (leaves), very vertical - the thickness gets filled in when the height is reached 
-- small branches on the side that fall off as soon as they're not needed 
-- once canopy height is reached, the bud starts branching outwards in all directions - first the stems making a skeleton, then the leaves, as membranes covering the stems.

-- trunk and side branches/platforms go up at the same time - a metre of trunk, which then spreads into a few branches. the middle branch thickens and continues to grow upwards as a trunk. 
-- the branches are symmetrical and well proportioned if the tree is alone. if other dwarf trees are around, the branches will elongate and reach towards the other trees, so the tree needs to keep continuous balance between growing of the branches and thickening the trunk not to topple... 
-- in presence of other trees, sometimes they will adjust their growth to match the other, so be able to form tunnels and caves woven from their branches

-The seeds are small, but in each berry there are many of them. They are also quite porous, like small fossilised sponges, able to absorb nutrients as they pass through the temporary hosts' digestive tract. Their shape is spherical, crystalline, composed of a mesh of hexagons and heptagons with semi-permeable membranes stretched between them. The mesh is usually translucent, and the membranes a glowing emerald colour. However, they both absorb the colour of the digestive system of their temporary hosts, so at the end, their outsides are dark brown with black bile.+The seeds are small, but in each berry there are many of them.
