Hylyptus

A hylyptus is a type of plant found on Bajor.

History and specifics[]

In 2371, a hylyptus tree was planted in an area of Bajor that had been left an arid wasteland by the Cardassians. Attending the ceremony with his father, Jake Sisko recalled he and his mother planted a hylyptus tree in the arboretum aboard the USS Saratoga on the day she died. As the hylyptus tree was planted, a Bajoran monk poured water on the barren soil from the sacred River Taaj in order to nourish the plant, which he said would be one of many in the future. The event provoked a great deal of emotion in the Bajorans and Jake Sisko. (DS9 - The Maquis: Soldier of Peace - Issue 2 comic: "A Tree Grows on Bajor")
