Lantern Tree (Below Zero)

The Lantern Tree is a rare, terrestrial flora species found in the Research Base 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. Over time, the Lantern Tree will start producing Lantern Fruits.

Due to the amount of fruit it produces, it is an extremely versatile source of food for the player, and power for the Bioreactor, with the only downside for them being it's relatively fast rate of decomposition.

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, Bioluminescence Lantern Fruits growing from them.

The Lantern Tree also has large leaves that are green with orange tips on the branches.
