Aquamarine

This huge fruit tree grows up to 46 feet (14.0 meters) tall and lives for up to 10 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 21 years old. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a sturdy, straight trunk covered in smooth, yellow-brown bark, and inside, the hard wood is yellow-brown.

The large clumps of branches trail down towards the ground and are covered with sparse amounts of giant, circular leaves with smooth edges. The leaves themselves are found in lime and amber varieties.

In early spring, it produces handfuls of medium-sized, aquamarine blossoms with oval-shaped petals with a bell-shaped floral cup. They are very delicate and have a scent that varies in strength that smells like old shoes.

In early autumn it produces , pleated fruit. The hairy black skin is delicate and edible when boiled; it is very savoury, and the soft cyan flesh is bitter and sour and very juicy. The gold seed is very large and sits at the top of the fruit.

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

Forests of this species feature trees spaced far apart, with clear space between them.
