Redvine

This short fruit tree grows up to 5 feet (1.5 meters) tall and lives for up to 45 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 46 years old. It is somewhat resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a branched, curved trunk covered in waxy, brown bark, and inside, the very light wood is pale yellow.

The tangled mess of branches trail down towards the ground and are covered with thick bunches of tiny, wide leaves with toothed edges. The leaves themselves are either subtle yellow, or hazel with black zig-zags.

In early spring, it produces thick bunches of medium-sized, blue blossoms with kidney-shaped shaped petals. They are very delicate and have a scent whose strength depends on external factors, such as soil quality and rain frequency that smells like paint.

In late autumn it produces tiny, pleated fruit. The leathery red skin is thick and edible when boiled; it is sweet, and the very soft hazel flesh is salty and sour and sticky. The yellow seeds are small and are dotted around on the skin of the fruit.

The roots form a tightly packed ball, and overall the tree is sturdy and rigid.

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