Amberberry

This big shrub grows up to 9 feet (2.7 meters) tall and lives for around 49 years. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has numerous knobbly, straight stems covered in smooth, dark brown bark, and the wood inside is light brown.

The branches trail down to the ground with thousands of twigs that and are covered with large amounts of miniature, very narrow and elongated, leaves with tattered edges. The leaves themselves are amber at the bottom and black with peach lines at the top, resistant and smooth.

In mid-summer it produces thick bunches of medium-sized, cyan blossoms with 9 umbrella-shaped shaped petals. They detach easily and have a scent that varies in strength that smells like rotten meat.

In early autumn spherical fruits ripen. The sticky blood red skin is peel-able and sweet, and the crunchy vivid yellow flesh is sweet and oily. The gold seed is tiny and sits at the end of the fruit.
