Crimsonfern

This small shrub grows up to 1 foot (30.5 cm) tall and lives for decades, with the oldest known specimen being around 200 years old. It is very resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has many flexible, twisting stems covered in knobbly, yellow-brown bark, and the wood inside is white with black speckles.

The branches trail down towards the ground with hundreds of twigs that and are covered with large amounts of large, broad, flat, leaves with wavy edges. The leaves themselves are ashy yellow and azure, hardy and soft.

It produces dozens of giant, intense red flowers with heart-shaped petals. They are hardy and have a delicate scent that smells like coconut. In late spring it forms smallbeige aril (seeds with fleshy covers).
