Bronzeberry
Fruit Tree type: Coniferous (Stores water in the thickened base of its stem)This short fruit tree grows up to 9 feet (2.7 meters) tall and lives for up to 45 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 74 years old. It is somewhat resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.
It has a long and flexible, slanted trunk covered in fine, knobbly, white with black speckled bark, and inside, the flexible wood is light brown.
The excessive amount of branches are short and thin and are covered with large amounts of giant, sickle shaped leaves with jagged edges. The leaves themselves are generally bronze.
In early spring, it produces a handful of tiny, amber blossoms with long, narrow petals with a trumpet-shaped floral cup. They fall easily and have a soft scent that smells like sweat.
In late autumn it produces tiny, cuboid fruit. The rough brown skin is thin and inedible, and the soft peach flesh is extremely sweet and juicy. The bronze seeds are large 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 the trees packed together, with patches of undergrowth between them.
