Silvervine

This small tree grows up to 6 meters (19.7 feet) tall and lives for decades, with the oldest known specimen being around 193 years old. It is very resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a narrow, crooked trunk covered in knobbly, silver and white bark, and inside, the light wood is white with black speckles.

The small bunches of branches are short, rigid and upright and are covered with handfuls of fuzzy, huge, long, narrow leaves with smooth edges. The leaves themselves are found in green, dark grey and gentle red varieties.

In late summer it forms small, lime seed pods.

The roots are long and grow straight down, and overall the tree is sturdy, flexible, and difficult to uproot or break.

Forests of this species feature trees spaced far apart, with the space between filled with undergrowth.
