Copperwood
Tree type: Deciduous (Grows along the ground or other low surfaces.)This modest-sized tree grows up to 54 meters (177.2 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 579 years old. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.
It has a flexible, crooked trunk covered in thick, cracked, mahogany-coloured bark, and inside, the very hard wood is brown.
The branches are very long and slender and are covered with copious amounts of smooth, small, finger-like leaves with rounded edges. The leaves themselves are solid ashy orange or blue, with copper splotches.
In late summer it forms tiny, gold berries.
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 the space between filled with undergrowth.
It is suitable for creating tough, hard-wearing textiles
