Bloodvine

This modest-sized tree grows up to 14 meters (45.9 feet) tall and lives for decades, with the oldest known specimen being around 117 years old. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a wide, straight trunk covered in thick, cracked, yellow-brown bark, and inside, the very dense wood is burgundy.

The small clumps of branches are very short and thin, covered with copious amounts of large, blood red needles. The needles themselves are frail.

In late summer it produces medium-sized, vibrant green seed pods.

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 them filled with thick undergrowth.
