Caramel

This small tree grows up to 6 meters (19.7 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 408 years old. It is very resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a stocky, slanted trunk covered in very thick, silky, black bark, and inside, the very hard wood is copper-coloured.

The excessive amount of branches are short and slender and are covered with handfuls of waxy, huge, very thick leaves with wavy edges. The leaves themselves are caramel and bronze.

In late summer it forms small, light brown, winged seeds that float and land far away.

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 well-spaced trees, with patches of undergrowth between them.
