Who's Groot? He is Groot !
And also a Marvel™ character and…
Groot was a Flora colossus from Planet X, the capital of the branch worlds. The sapling that would come to be known as "Groot" came from an "Enobled Sap-line".
After Groot killed another sapling to defend a maintenance mammal it was brutalising, as well as releasing a human subject that was kidnapped for scientific purposes, he was exiled of the planet by the "Arbor Masters". With no place to go, Groot set to explore other galaxies.
Into his adulthood Groot found himself in Kree space, where he was promptly captured and imprisoned. While in jail, he formed a rapport with Rocket Raccoon and was assigned to a covert ops team led by Starlord, whose goal was to assault Hala and defeat the Phalanx. That is when he joined the Guardian of The Galaxy.
