Blueberry Tree

This massive fruit tree grows up to 61 feet (18.6 meters) tall and lives for up to 25 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 56 years old. It is not very resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a flexible, wonky trunk covered in delicate, rough, yellow-brown bark, and inside, the hard wood is silver.

The branches are tall, rigid and upright and are covered with small amounts of huge, stiff, pointed leaves with irregular edges. The leaves themselves are white and deep green.

In early spring, it produces copious amounts of tiny, slate blossoms with asymmetrical petals with a trumpet-shaped floral cup. They are hardy and have a delicate scent that smells like burning wood.

In early summer it produces very large, spherical fruit. The sticky bright red skin is thin and inedible, and the crunchy sky blue flesh is sweet and very juicy. The pale green seed is small and sits at the end of the fruit.

The roots grow as a near perfect mirror of the tree above, and overall the tree is sturdy and rigid.

Forests of this species feature trees spaced far apart, with grassy ground between them.
