Graywood

Tree type: Coniferous (Stores water in the thickened base of its stem)

This short tree grows up to 2 meters (6.6 feet) tall and lives for decades, with the oldest known specimen being around 71 years old. It is very resistant to destructive insect infestation but susceptible to disease.

It has a sturdy, curved trunk covered in paper-thin, rough, light gray bark, and inside, the soft wood is pale brown-grey.

The branches trail down towards the ground, with thousands of twigs covered with large amounts of large, green needles. The needles themselves are robust.

In late summer it produces giant, bright green seed pods.

The roots form a tightly packed ball, and overall the tree is rigid and weak, and breaks apart easily.

Forests of this species feature well-spaced trees, with the space between filled with undergrowth.
