Is this actually true?
No it’s a camperdown elm. I looked it up.
Those do look like they’re growing upside down kinda, though.
Lol thanks, I’m an arborist and I was thinking everything I know about tree biology says this shouldn’t happen… but on the other hand trees are amazing so who knows.
What your favourite tree, and why? (Justifications can be as arbitrary as you want)
(I am craving of real tree content to replace this disappointingly false post)
Justifications can also be arbortrary
I like the Indian cork tree. Can grow tall or smol, great canopy, beautiful cone flowers with little penta petals, and smells wonderfully calming.
Sorry I didn’t reply I got busy but check out the Tule tree: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/el-arbol-del-tule-tule-tree
I’m growing one in front of my house. I like to imagine someday it will grow similarly large.
