[X] Stone Seedling: Neigbors are always a pain, that is why Stone Seedlings do the smart thing and go out of their way to starve them of resources. In addition to draining the ground of minerals the Stone seedlings have begun draining the soil of as much water as possible in order to deny their neighbors their resources. They have begun storing the water in fruits in which they will slowly turn the water into a smelly sugary syrup. If they have a large excess of water, like after a good rainshower they would rather have their fruits sweat that syrup than to leave it in the ground for their neighbors. They have also begun putting their babies in these fruits, since they kept getting taken away and it seemed to be a good way to prevent their children from becoming their neighbors.
[X] [Seedlings] Most of the body remains underground. Only sending up their colorful leaves when sensing warmth and light. Then retracting the leaves down via origami folding during cold and darkness where they can safely regrow any loss. With larger leaves for more sunlight and deeper roots for more water and nutrients. Any excess that doesn't go into making their bulb bigger and tougher gets periodically used to make rich fruit above ground.
