Cliffvine
Tree type: Deciduous (Grows upwards by clinging to almost any surface.)This average-sized tree grows up to 10 meters (32.8 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 647 years old. It is very resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.
It has a thick, crooked trunk covered in fine, knobbly, yellow bark, and inside, the flexible wood is yellow-brown.
The sparse amount of branches trail down to the ground and are covered with very large amounts of sticky, tiny, very thick leaves with tattered edges. The leaves themselves are gold and violet.
In early spring, it produces a handful of tiny, blood red blossoms with fan-like petals. They are sturdy and have a strong scent that smells like pineapple.
In late summer it forms medium-sized, grey, winged seeds that float and land far away.
The roots spread far and go deep underground, and overall the tree is rigid and weak, and breaks apart easily.
Forests of this species feature well-spaced trees, with grassy ground between them.
The bark is frequently covered in moss.
It is suitable for making baskets and the like
