Choose one unattended, nonmagical 5-ft. square of earth within Medium (60 ft.) range. Brambles and similar small plants grow in the area, making it light undergrowth. If it was already light undergrowth, it becomes heavy undergrowth instead.

You make a Craft check to alter the target (see Craft), except that you do not need any special tools to make the check, such as an axe or pruning shears. As long as the plant’s new shape is structurally sound and conducive to life, this reshaping does not harm the plant. It will continue growing as if it had always had its new shape.

A field of light undergrowth spreads on the ground in all squares adjacent to the wall.

When this spell’s duration ends, the plants return to their original size.
