Growth without end. Life without restraint. Exponential potential.

• Mycelial Nutrient - Food Production; Biology Research Boost
  
• Floral Genesis - Tech to terraform into Bloom World; minimum 50% Habitability
  
• Produces 2 Mycogrowth monthly; as it’s consumed, we have to avoid the possibility of a player soft-locking itself
  
• Spore-Lattice Engineering - Terraforming tech if missing; and Terraforming Speed

Patterns emerge in growth. Some say it is spiritual. Others say it is biological resonance.

• Requirements (outside of Mycogrowth): Inhabit a Bloom World
  
• Symbiotic Infrastructure - Food Production; More Districts on non-artificial worlds
  
• Unlock the Bloom Propagation Decision to boost Farmer and let them produces Mycogrowth
  
• Rapid Propagation - Climate Restoration & Biointegration (-50% Bloom World Terraforming Cost) techs
  
• Adaptive Roots - More Terraforming Speed & minimum Habitability on Bloom Worlds

The Evergrowth no longer requires permission to spread. Winds carry our spores across hyperlanes.

• Requirements (outside of Mycogrowth): At least 25% of colonies must be Bloom Worlds
  
• Silent Sprouting - Unlock the Spy Operation: "Covert Seeding"; Bonus to Spying
  
• Verdant Pressure - Unity and Research production from every Bloom World in the Galaxy
  
• Verdant Accord - Diplomatic action to ask empires to embrace the Evergrowth (Trade Deal & Specialist Subject)
  
• Bloomforms - More Terraforming Speed & Defense Armies Boost

There is no longer any resistance, only delay. The growth has become exponential.

• Requirements (outside of Mycogrowth): At least 75% of colonies must be Bloom Worlds
  
• Scorch to Seed - Gain a Bombardment Stance to terraform into Bloom Worlds
  
• Complete Bloomform - All owned species gain a new trait, embracing the Bloom Worlds
  
• Seeding Mastery - Huge Terraforming Speed and Cost reduction
  
• Verdant Cascade - Upgrade the Bloom Propagation Decision
  Apply sector-wide, and more powerful than ever; If not a Bloom World yet, start the terraformation

Metal rusts. Stone cracks. Code decays. But life ? Life adapts.

• Requirements (outside of Mycogrowth): At least 90% of colonies must be Bloom Worlds, and a Tech
  
• Spore Sublink - Massive boost per Bloom Worlds to:
  - Unity/Food and small Influence, if within borders
  - Alloys/Ship Build Speed and small Stability, within the galaxy
  
• Seedbreaker - Unlock a new colossus weapon that immediately terraform into Bloom World; also grant the Colossus tech if missing
  - If DLC is missing, only gain the Orbital Bombardment Damage
  
• Sporekindred - The Bloomform Trait spread passively through migration treaties/empire having Bloom World inhabited

The Evergrowth Singularity
Turn every habitable world into Bloom Worlds; a catastrophe for everyone who didn’t accept the overrun ever-evolving spore and mutated creatures. Pockets of survivors may survive, and even thrive, but their society would have collapsed under nature's pressure.

• Complete a Special Project by turning more Worlds into blooming joy
  
• Do a costly and long Decision on your capital
  
• Do another one, this will give a final warning to the galaxy
  
• Win as most of the galaxy blooms
