Copperwood
Tree type: Deciduous (Sheds its leaves in winter)This large tree grows up to 61 meters (200.1 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 565 years old. It is not very resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.
It has a thick, straight trunk covered in fine, silky, copper-coloured bark, and inside, the very hard wood is dark brown.
The excessive amount of branches are short and thin and are covered with large amounts of fuzzy, giant, thick leaves with wavy edges. The leaves themselves are moss green with white tips.
In early spring, it produces handfuls of medium-sized, bronze blossoms with V-shaped shaped petals. They are hardy and have a soft scent that smells like honeysuckle.
In late summer it forms large, beige berries.
The roots grow as a near perfect mirror of the tree above, and overall the tree is sturdy and difficult to uproot.
Forests of this species feature well-spaced trees, with clear space between them.
