Aquarex Elm
Geba woodland tree
Origin
Geba (woodlands, rivers and floodplains)
Record
Geban field flora
The Aquarex Elm is a keystone woodland tree of Geba. It bears smooth pale bark that beads and sheds heavy rainfall to prevent saturation. It coppices vigorously from cut stumps, stabilizes soils along rivers and floodplains, and supports pollinators and small woodland fauna such as the Imperial Striking Wasp. The timber is dense and water-resistant and is widely used for construction and craft. The elm tolerates mild seismic activity and aids recovery after disturbance.
