Yes, it does. The wind carried a little soil into the cracks of the rock and seeds from the other cypress trees were also carried there by birds or the wind. This is how the tree started to grow there, against all odds - the storms, the ocean, and the otherwise disadvantageous environment. It has become a symbol of strength, character, faith and the victory of life. It is now apprx. 250 years old.

How do you exterminate a cypressknee?

Why do you want to kill a cypress knee? You can take a long saw and swim down to the base and saw it away from the root. You might however cause problems. A cypress tree produces cypress knees to provide its underwater roots with air. You could grow a cypress tree on land and it would not produce knees. It only needs a way to get oxygen to its roots underwater. If you remove all its knees, you will kill the tree. If you want to kill the tree, that will be a good way to do it.
