Tsatsos Maple
The Tsatsos Maple is a native species of tree unique to the lava planet it was cultivated on.
First developed by Billy Rigers, the Tsatsos Maple was cultivated after a careful genetic study using genetic material from lost Earth, and research materials stolen from the Tenebrian Remnant. The grove was planted south of the capital on Tsatsos as part of a mission to thicken the atmosphere and make something to natrually absorb the high level of carbon dioxide and other gasses in the air. The trees have grown at about one and a half times the speed of a terran maple tree.
The tree gets to a maximum height of 50m tall, and can be tapped during the spring and fall seasons of the year for a thick yellow sap. Uses for this sap have not been officially documented. The tree also drops red cones that are soft and flexible with their seed pods in the center.
