Crimson Tree

This average-sized tree grows up to 38 meters (124.7 feet) tall and lives for decades, with the oldest known specimen being around 81 years old. It is somewhat resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a flexible, wonky trunk covered in knobbly, copper-coloured bark, and inside, the soft wood is pine-coloured.

The numerous branches are very long and slender and are covered with copious amounts of covered in fine hairs, miniature, oval-shaped leaves with jagged edges. The leaves themselves are silver and crimson.

In late summer it forms giant, yellow, tough-shelled seeds.

The roots form a tightly packed ball, and overall the tree is rigid and weak, and breaks apart easily.

Forests of this species feature trees spaced far apart, with the space between filled with undergrowth.
