Actually, I thought that was the weirdest part. Those "branches" that came out first seemed to play no real part in the plant. Everything else came up from the middle between these, and the original tendrils just kind of hung around looking different to the rest of the tree. I wasn't sure if they're supposed to end up going back into the soil as roots, as I've never noticed the bottom branches on pine trees being different to the rest, and it looked like they might have been trying to be roots towards the end, but if so they still weren't very deep at the 300 day mark.
