Bluevine

This average-sized fruit tree grows up to 16 feet (4.9 meters) tall and lives for up to 40 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 57 years old. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a thick, crooked trunk covered in delicate, smooth, light brown bark, and inside, the very light wood is pine-coloured.

The sparse amount of branches are short stubs and are covered with small amounts of tiny, thick leaves with irregular edges. The leaves themselves are orange and muted blue.

In early spring, it produces large amounts of tiny, green blossoms with oblong petals with a trumpet-shaped floral cup. They detach easily and have a strong scent that smells like rotting meat.

In early winter it produces small, oblong fruit. The smooth cyan skin is delicate and edible when boiled; it is spicy and savoury, and the crunchy peach flesh is sweet and spicy and very dry. The orange seeds are tiny and are scattered throughout the fruit.

The roots spread far and go deep underground, and overall the tree is sturdy and rigid.

Forests of this species feature trees spaced far apart, with patches of undergrowth between them.
