Sunset Shrub

This small shrub grows up to 1 foot (30.5 cm) tall and lives for around 34 years. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has numerous knobbly, angular stems covered in fine, smooth, black bark, and the wood inside is silver.

The branches are short and thin with thousands of twigs that and are covered with thick bunches of miniature, thick, leaves with tattered edges. The leaves themselves are florescent yellow on the edges and orange at the center, light and clammy.

It produces lots of large, beige flowers with many layers of petals with a bell-shaped floral cup. They detach easily and have a strong scent that smells like misty mornings. In late autumn it forms giantorange, winged seeds that float and land far away.
