A kshyy vine.
- "That cable? That's a vine?"
"It a kshyy vine is. Do not worry about its strength. It is strongerr than composite cable material, and cannot even by blasterrs be cut. Too, it is self-repairing." - ―Leia Organa Solo and Ralrracheen
Kshyy vines were plants which grew on the wroshyr trees of Kashyyyk. The Wookiees hung sacrifices from one such vine to feed a terentatek. These vines were self-repairing vines, which could not be damaged even by blasters.
Liftcars on Kashyyyk were held in place and moved vertically by kshyy vines. Various fungi and parasites, if unchecked, could damage or break the vines, but the cars employed repulsorlifts as a backup.
