Copperwood

This massive tree grows up to 142 meters (465.9 feet) tall and lives seemingly forever, with many known specimen being tens of thousands of years old. It is very susceptible to disease and insect infestation.

It has a slender, straight trunk covered in thick, rough, silver and white bark, and inside, the light wood is mahogany-coloured.

The branches trail down to the ground, with thousands of twigs covered with copious amounts of small, copper needles. The needles themselves are strong and tough.

In late summer it produces tiny, brown, shelled seeds.

The roots grow as a near perfect mirror of the tree above, and overall the tree is rigid and brittle.

Forests of this species feature well-spaced trees, with patches of undergrowth between them.
