Silvervine

This massive tree grows up to 96 meters (315.0 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 535 years old. It is very susceptible to disease and insect infestation.

It has a branched, crooked trunk covered in silky, silver and white bark, and inside, the soft wood is burgundy.

The branches are short and thin and are covered with handfuls of rough, large, slender, pointed leaves with toothed edges. The leaves themselves are generally lilac.

In late summer it forms giant, silver aril (seeds with fleshy covers).

The roots form a tightly packed ball, and overall the tree is sturdy, flexible, and difficult to uproot or break.

Forests of this species feature the trees packed together densely, with the space between them filled with thick undergrowth.
