Burgundy Spiral Tree

This modest-sized tree grows up to 25 meters (82.0 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 366 years old. It is very resistant to disease but is susceptible to destructive insect infestation.

It has a thick, wavy trunk covered in thick, ridged, burgundy bark, and inside, the very light wood is pale brown-grey.

The numerous branches trail down to the ground, with hundreds of twigs covered with sparse amounts of giant, gray needles. The needles themselves are resilient.

In late summer it produces tiny, red, winged seeds that spin and fall nearby.

The roots grow as a near perfect mirror of the tree above, and overall the tree is sturdy, flexible, and difficult to uproot or break.

Forests of this species feature the trees packed together, with grassy ground between them.
