Creamleaf

Shrub type: Deciduous (Grows along the ground or other low surfaces.)

This large shrub grows up to 7 feet (2.1 meters) tall and lives for around 19 years. It is very susceptible to disease and insect infestation.

It has several narrow, slanted stems covered in paper-thin, silky, dark brown bark, and the wood inside is pine-coloured.

The branches are short, rigid and upright with dozens of twigs that and are covered with copious amounts of tiny, circular, leaves with tattered edges. The leaves themselves are generally cream, light and soft.

In mid-spring it produces handfuls of giant, bright green flowers with 7 shield-shaped shaped petals. They fall easily and have a weak scent that smells like warm cookies.

It is suitable for use as a construction material
It is difficult to kill and will quickly regrow if it falls or if its limbs are knocked off.
