Silvery

This small tree grows up to 4 meters (13.1 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 576 years old. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a branched, slanted trunk covered in silky, dark brown bark, and inside, the hard wood is silver.

The branches are very long and slender and are covered with small amounts of rough, giant, spear shaped leaves with tattered edges. The leaves themselves are pale red and bold green.

In late summer it forms tiny, olive, spiky-shelled seeds.

The roots are fine and grow in a large web, and overall the tree is rigid and weak, and breaks apart easily.

Forests of this species feature trees spaced far apart, with patches of undergrowth between them.
