Aquamarine Bloodleaf

This short tree grows up to 6 meters (19.7 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 569 years old. It is very resistant to disease but is susceptible to destructive insect infestation.

It has a very thick, wavy trunk covered in ridged, dark gray bark, and inside, the medium-dense wood is pale brown.

The small handful of branches are long and thin and are covered with small amounts of crispy, huge, very thin leaves with smooth edges. The leaves themselves are either aquamarine, or blood red with sky blue edges.

In late summer it forms giant, white, spiky-shelled seeds.

The roots are fine and grow in a large web, and overall the tree is rigid and weak, and breaks apart easily.

Forests of this species feature the trees packed together, with clear space between them.
