Orangeberry

This colossal fruit tree grows up to 57 feet (17.4 meters) tall and lives for up to 10 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 31 years old. It is very resistant to destructive insect infestation but susceptible to disease.

It has a stocky, slanted trunk covered in thin, smooth, brown-green speckled bark, and inside, the soft wood is black with white speckles.

The small bunches of branches are tall, rigid and upright and are covered with handfuls of large, broad, flat leaves with jagged edges. The leaves themselves are solid dark orange or dark grey, with silver splotches.

In early spring, it produces thousands of small, purple blossoms with perforated petals with a trumpet-shaped floral cup. They detach easily and have a faint scent that smells like candle wax.

In late summer it produces , fan-like fruit. The fuzzy pink skin is stretchy and sour, and the crunchy bold red flesh is sweet and sour and syrupy. The florescent orange seeds are tiny and are scattered throughout the fruit.

The roots are thick and spread across the surface, as well as underground, and overall the tree is sturdy, flexible, and difficult to uproot or break.

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