Pinkberry
Fruit Tree type: Deciduous (Grows upwards by clinging to almost any surface.)This small fruit tree grows up to 7 feet (2.1 meters) tall and lives for up to 25 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 35 years old. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.
It has a flexible, wavy trunk covered in very thick, rough, brown-green bark, and inside, the hard wood is gray.
The tangled mess of branches trail down to the ground and are covered with small bunches of giant, 6 pointed leaves with ripped edges. The leaves themselves are found in pink and gold varieties.
In early spring, it produces many balls of giant, blood red blossoms with long, tapering petals with a trumpet-shaped floral cup. They are hardy and have a strong scent that smells like damp.
In early summer it produces small, spherical fruit. The smooth beige skin is delicate and inedible, and the very soft blue flesh is savoury and dry. The grey seeds are large and are scattered throughout the fruit.
The roots grow as a near perfect mirror of the tree above, and overall the tree is sturdy and rigid.
Forests of this species feature the trees packed together, with clear space between them.
It is suitable for creating strong, durable textiles
