Amberwood

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

This average-sized tree grows up to 59 meters (193.6 feet) tall and lives for decades, with the oldest known specimen being around 67 years old. It is very resistant to disease but is susceptible to destructive insect infestation.

It has a branched, straight trunk covered in hard, knobbly, black bark, and inside, the hard wood is yellow-brown.

The small bunches of branches are short and thick and are covered with sparse amounts of rough, small, thin leaves with ripped edges. The leaves themselves are solid amber or grey, with bright orange lines.

In late summer it forms medium-sized, brown aril (seeds with fleshy covers).

The roots are thick and spread across the surface, as well as underground, and overall the tree is sturdy and rigid.

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


It is suitable for creating strong, durable textiles
