Magenta

Fruit Tree type: Deciduous (Stores water in the thickened base of its stem)

This average-sized fruit tree grows up to 10 feet (3.0 meters) tall and lives for up to 35 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 69 years old. It is very susceptible to disease and insect infestation.

It has a thick, wonky trunk covered in paper-thin, ridged, dark green bark, and inside, the light wood is pale brown-grey.

The extensive patches of branches are very short and thin and are covered with copious amounts of miniature, perforated leaves with jagged edges. The leaves themselves are gentle green with yellow tips.

In early spring, it produces lots of medium-sized, green blossoms with perforated petals with a trumpet-shaped floral cup. They are sturdy and have a delicate scent that smells like bonfire smoke.

In mid-autumn it produces , perforated fruit. The sticky magenta skin is thin and inedible, and the soft washed-out purple flesh is sour and oily. The grey seeds are large and are scattered throughout the fruit.

The roots grow as a near perfect mirror of the tree above, 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.


It is suitable for creating strong, durable textiles
