Waterpine

This large tree grows up to 84 meters (275.6 feet) tall and lives for decades, with the oldest known specimen being around 91 years old. It is very resistant to disease but is susceptible to destructive insect infestation.

It has a long and flexible, straight trunk covered in thick, cracked, pine-coloured bark, and inside, the dense wood is dark brown.

The excessive amount of branches are long and thick and are covered with handfuls of fuzzy, large, stiff, pointed leaves with ripped edges. The leaves themselves are either blue, or subtle yellow with indigo zig-zags.

In late summer it forms medium-sized, white, winged seeds that spin and fall nearby.

The roots are shallow and widely spread, and overall the tree is sturdy and difficult to uproot.

Forests of this species feature the trees packed together, with patches of undergrowth between them.
