Mangrove tree

A small to medium coastal mangrove tree shown as a single plant, with a short to medium gray-brown to dark brown trunk, spreading branches, and a compact rounded to slightly spreading canopy of dense oval medium-to-dark green leaves. The most distinctive feature is the exposed reddish-brown to brown prop or stilt roots: prominent arching roots radiate and splay outward from the lower trunk and sometimes lower branches, descending into muddy coastal substrate to form multiple exposed root stilts or a tangled lattice around the base. Overall appearance is salt-tolerant and tropical.
