Twistvine

This small shrub grows up to 1 foot (30.5 cm) tall and lives for around 91 years. It is somewhat resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has many thick, twisting stems covered in fine, cracked, dark gray bark, and the wood inside is black with white speckles.

The branches are tall, rigid and upright that and are covered with small amounts of large, very narrow and elongated, leaves with smooth edges. The leaves themselves are green and red, light and smooth.

In early summer it produces thousands of giant, grey flowers with oval-shaped shaped petals. They are sturdy and have a soft scent that smells like roses.
