Wroshyr tree

The wroshyr tree was a species of flora native to the. First documented on, the species of was also recorded on far–flung worlds such as Sarapin. The Kashyyyk system, specifically, was recognized as the origin of the wroshyr due to petrified remains of a forest of trees that dated as far back as fifty million years. Petrified remains were also witnessed on the colony moon,, which dated roughly a millennium later. This suggested that a large interstellar collision occurred that separated the two entities.

The wroshyr tree for several millennia was known as an average-sized tree that had distinctive aerating roots similar to Dagobah's. After the introduction of the Kashyyyk system to the known galaxy, the perception of the wroshyr was radically changed. The Kashyyyk variant grew kilometers upon kilometers tall and had the capacity to provide shelter to thousands of Wookiees. Unsure of why the wroshyr grew so large on Kashyyyk and, to a lesser extent, Alaris Prime, Republic scientists hypothesized that the Wookiee wroshyr had a much longer lifespan and suffered from climate change and deforestation significantly less than its varieties on Dantooine and Sarapin.

Wookiee tree cities were created within large forests of trees. The Wookiees would carve into the bark and make the hollowed trees their homes while branches would serve as thoroughfares between trees. and were well–known tree cities built into the wroshyr tree.
