Copperleaf

This small tree grows up to 6 meters (19.7 feet) tall and lives for centuries, with the oldest known specimen being around 298 years old. It is very resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a narrow, slanted trunk covered in thick, ridged, dark gray bark, and inside, the hard wood is burgundy.

The small clumps of branches are very long, thin and wispy and are covered with very large amounts of smooth, giant, thin leaves with jagged edges. The leaves themselves are either sky blue or dark yellow, with copper dots.

In late summer it forms tiny, gold, winged seeds that float and land far away.

The roots spread far and go deep underground, and overall the tree is sturdy and rigid.

Forests of this species feature trees spaced far apart, with patches of undergrowth between them.
