"conditions allowing" I've never heard that phrase before. Did you mean "should conditions be ideal".
It's interesting that it can change its leaf color. Can you elaborate on how it does this?

Edited and elaborated.

It's like a mix between an oak and a coconut tree. I like it. Hopefully some tamow or shrog learns how to adapt to this new flora, since fire resistance wood would prove useful should forest fires occur.

It's not fire-resistant when dry and dead.
