I'm doing a picture book and when I started colouring the Curtain Fig Tree in but I didn't know what colour it was.
The fig is often potted as a house tree, but left alone can grow to 50 feet (10 to 30 feet is average).
A Banyan tree grows roots from its branches and trunks; these roots are called Aerial roots.
I can't quite remember, but until there is a better answer, I was pretty sure it was a somewhat parasitic tree that strangled the tree it was growing on. It sprouted on the tree, and then sent down roots, smothering the tree with the strangler fig branches and roots and leaves. I think. I hope someone can give a better answer...
there are many answers to this but i only have one and it is a strangler fig on the branches of a tree and then the strangler fig eventually sprout aerial roots . overtime, many roots may grow and then will wrap around the tree resulting in death of the tree.
It climbs up it using its roots to get to sunlight in the canopy. Eventually the strangler fig tree will strangle the host tree to death and only the hollow strangler fig will be left.
it has a parasitism relationship with the tree.strangler fig seeds germinate at the top of the tree which enables it to get light,water and minerals.as it grows its roots go downwards and around the host tree.its roots strangle the host tree and its canopy shades light from the trees and eventually the tree dies.
you look like a zombie
Cut the tree down to 6 inches and then multiple shoots will emerge from the roots
The strangling fig has aerial roots that are found above the ground.
A fig tree is an angiosperm
Looks like it is dry at the roots.
first They send their roots to the ground, when it reaches the ground it gives food and water to the tree, then as the tree grows it sends more and more roots to the ground for nutrient, minerals, and water. :)
