Waterleaf Tree

This average-sized tree grows up to 52 meters (170.6 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 513 years old. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a thick, crooked trunk covered in thick, wrinkled, black with white speckled bark, and inside, the very hard wood is light brown.

The branches are long and thick and are covered with handfuls of sticky, huge, sickle shaped leaves with smooth edges. The leaves themselves are solid olive or deep blue, with magenta patches.

In late summer it forms medium-sized, crimson seed pods.

The roots are long and grow straight down, and overall the tree is sturdy and difficult to uproot.

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