- "Growing out of that tiny groove was a spinebarrel – a speck of green. I saw that and decided if that little spinebarrel could survive here, so can I. Whether big or small, life finds a way on Jakku."
- ―Rey describes how she found the Hellhound Two, in her survival guide
Spinebarrels were a type of flower that grew on Jakku, a desert planet in the Western Reaches. Rey, a scavenger on Jakku, once found a small spinebarrel growing in the sand, which helped her realize that anything could survive on Jakku. She made a hobby of collecting spinebarrels and nightblossoms to display in her home in order to remind herself that there was beauty even on Jakku as long as you looked hard enough.[1]
