Unidentified Biituian fruit tree

The tall trees growing on the Outer Rim — Based on corresponding data for Biitu system agriworld Biitu had light-colored bark and green leaves. They produced orange fruit consumable by both the native Biituians and reptiles.
On Biitu, the native Biituians cultivated the trees in vast orchards, harvesting their fruit in large baskets. However, when the Galactic Empire claimed Biitu for its valuable fuel ore, several of these trees were stripped of foliage and uprooted by the fierce winds produced by a low fly-over of an Imperial craft. These orchards later became barren as an Imperial "moisture eater" drained all moisture from the atmosphere and caused a drought. However, resistance from the Biituian Fidge and his pet Chubb, the droids C-3PO and R2-D2, and the merchant Mungo Baobab led to the destruction of the moisture eater and the defeat of Imperial forces. The return of moisture allowed the fruit trees to grow again, and the Biituians utilized captured Imperials to restore the crops.
