Golden Fruit Tree

Fruit Tree type: Coniferous (Stores water in its stem)

This average-sized fruit tree grows up to 14 feet (4.3 meters) tall and lives for up to 35 years, with the oldest known specimen being around 55 years old. It is susceptible to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has a stocky, twisting trunk covered in thick, cracked, black with white speckled bark, and inside, the soft wood is white with black speckles.

The tangled mess of branches are short stubs and are covered with thick bunches of small, perforated leaves with smooth edges. The leaves themselves are orange and gold.

In early spring, it produces large amounts of large, cyan blossoms with cylindrical shaped petals. They are very delicate and have no scent.

In early autumn it produces small, triangular fruit. The smooth cream skin is peel-able and sweet, and the soft cream flesh is savoury and sticky. The olive seed is small and sits at the top of the fruit.

The roots are shallow and grow straight down, and overall the tree is sturdy and rigid.

Forests of this species feature the trees packed together, with grassy ground between them.

It can grow in even the most barren lands.
The sap is copper.
It is suitable for creating fine, soft textiles
All of it is said to be part of one single, massive plant.
