What modifications are needed to have tree that can create hurricane/cyclone around it?

+0
−0

I don't know much about hurricane/cyclone and how to created it (nor know the difference much, so bear with me if i make mistake), so I want to know what kind of plant organs or ability need to achieve this without harming the tree itself.

So in one of the isolated island in my world, there's an endemic tree that can create hurricane/cyclone field as their way of eradicating their competitors and protect themselves from harm/animals, they live inside the hurricane/cyclone eye/core/center where its calmer, in the same time i think this wind also help to spread their seed/pollination, and monopolize the sun light.

  • they grow pretty spread out from each other to be able to not compete with their own species and not disturbing their hurricane/cyclone field.

  • the rest that unlucky to grow/sprout near other hurricane/cyclone field is more likely death or unable to grow properly.

  • I don't know how strong the hurricane/cyclone need to be but at least achievable by this tree or enough to throw a cow out of the field.

  • As I mention, this is real plant that performs photosynthesis, so fungus and such is not part of this.

  • Carnivorous plants are also out of the question.

  • Even better if they still can bear fruit and flower and can withstand this hurricane/cyclone (optional)

  • I don't think the weather or climate in the island yet, since i think this will be related to create the hurricane/cyclone possible for this tree, but the planet itself is habitable planet like earth, originally i was thinking its around tropical or equator but feel free to suggest better climate/weather to achieve this.

  • I originally think When the tree is death or the structure break, it stop creating hurricane/cyclone either it goes poof and gone or gradually calmed down or off to move around especially to outside the island.

  • If possible would also help to know the lifespans of a tree like this can live, since i am not good with math.

I originally think the adult plant has spiral hollow tube around it where it accumulate slowly into stronger hurricane/cyclone with structure like bamboo or flexibility, where it can bend and sway around with strong roots when the hurricane/cyclone has become strong enough.

Feel free to edit my grammar or the tags to be appropriate for my question, since I am not sure which tags are most appropriate for my question.
