Burgundy Tree

This big tree grows up to 85 meters (278.9 feet) tall and lives for decades, with the oldest known specimen being around 78 years old. It is very susceptible to disease and insect infestation.

It has a branched, straight trunk covered in wrinkled, burgundy bark, and inside, the very dense wood is pale yellow.

The branches are short stubs and are covered with large amounts of smooth, giant, wide leaves with toothed edges. The leaves themselves are beige at the bottom and peach with red lines at the top.

In late summer it forms tiny, black, spiky-shelled seeds.

The roots form a tightly packed ball, and overall the tree is sturdy and rigid.

Forests of this species feature the trees packed together densely, with the space between them filled with thick undergrowth.
