Lantern Tree (Below Zero)

The Lantern Tree is a rare, terrestrial flora species found in the Outpost Zero.

Lantern Fruits can be collected by plucking them from the Lantern Tree's branches. One can plant a Lantern Fruit in Indoor Growbed and Plant Pots. Over a certain amount of time (about twelve minutes), it will grow into a Lantern Tree. Once fully grown, the Lantern Tree will begin to produce Lantern Fruits overtime.

Due to the amount of fruit it produces, it is an extremely versatile source of food for the player, and provides lots of power when used in a Bioreactor. However, Lantern Fruits decompose relatively quickly, and it is best to consume them very soon after plucking.

Appearance
The Lantern Tree has a large trunk, made of several vines twisting in a spiral motion that stretch outwards into several individual branches. The branches have small, bioluminescent Lantern Fruits growing from them.

The Lantern Tree's branches also bear large, blue-green leaves with blue stripes and orange tips.
