Aquasilk Tree

This short tree grows up to 6 meters (19.7 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 583 years old. It is very resistant to destructive insect infestation but susceptible to disease.

It has a flexible, angular trunk covered in hard, rough, brown bark, and inside, the soft wood is pale brown.

The abundance of branches trail down to the ground and are covered with handfuls of crispy, small, finger-like leaves with irregular edges. The leaves themselves are lime on the edges and amber at the center.

In late summer it forms large, yellow, winged seeds that spin and fall nearby.

The roots are thick and spread across the surface, as well as underground, and overall the tree is rigid and brittle.

Forests of this species feature trees spaced far apart, with patches of undergrowth between them.
