Legend

this tree was developed by the Yuuzhan Vong Shaper Nen Yim for its beauty as well as its nearly-continual appetite. The lim tree was believed to have been extinct, maintained only as a genetic blueprint in the Qang qahsa. The silvery tendrils of the lim tree moved about in feeble motions, seraching for any form os sustenance they could grasp. Lim trees were used in Nen Yim's private quarters to keep organic debris and refuse to a minimum. When Nen Yim encountered a plant which was very similar to a lim tree on Zonama Sekot, it became obvious to her that there was a strong connection between the living planet, the Yuuzhan Vong, and the galaxy of the New Republic. The incredible similarity indicated that some Yuuzhan Vong had made contact with the planet no less than 1,000 years before the invasion, since data on the lim tree had not been accessed in the Qang qhasa since then.
