One plant species depicted by Berrocal is the pati (Eriotheca vargasii), a tree considered sacred by the ancient Wari culture. Its great age has led to it being considered a witness to the creation of the world in the oral tradition of Sarhua. This herbaceous species reaches up to 6 meters in height and its roots possess water reservoirs that enable the tree to resist dry seasons. Its flowers are bisexual and therefore associated with fertility, and its fruits have a soft, cotton-like texture.
