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.
A fig tree grows from the bottom up by sending out roots into the soil to absorb water and nutrients. These roots support the growth of the trunk, branches, and leaves above ground. The tree then produces figs on its branches, which grow and ripen over time.
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 strangler fig is a type of rainforest tree that can kill other trees by wrapping its roots around them and eventually smothering them. The strangler fig starts its life as an epiphyte, germinating in the canopy of another tree and sending roots down to the forest floor. Over time, the roots grow around the host tree, cutting off its nutrients and eventually leading to its death.
The strangling fig has aerial roots that are found above the ground.
A fig tree is an angiosperm
