Caramel Fruit Tree

This big fruit tree grows up to 36 feet (11.0 meters) tall and lives for up to 10 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 17 years old. It is very susceptible to disease and insect infestation.

It has a sturdy, wonky trunk covered in thick, wrinkled, white with black speckled bark, and inside, the light wood is brown.

The branches are long and thin and are covered with handfuls of small, 8 pointed leaves with toothed edges. The leaves themselves are generally caramel.

In early spring, it produces many bunches of tiny, green blossoms with perforated petals with a trumpet-shaped floral cup. They are sturdy and have a fairly strong scent that smells like a woman.

In late autumn it produces small, shield-shaped fruit. The hairy pink skin is thick and spicy and savoury, and the crunchy slate flesh is bitter and very juicy. The crimson seed is large and sits at the top of the fruit.

The roots are fine and grow in a large web, and overall the tree is sturdy and rigid.

Forests of this species feature the trees packed together, with the space between them filled with thick undergrowth.
