Lumnitzera racemosa
Lumnitzera racemosa is a species of mangrove tree found primarily in coastal regions of tropical Asia and Australia. It typically grows in saline environments, thriving in intertidal zones where it can withstand flooding and saltwater. The tree can reach heights of up to 10 meters and features distinctive, narrow leaves that are arranged oppositely along the stem.
This species is known for its unique reproductive strategy, producing clusters of small, white flowers that develop into fruit. The fruit is a small, elongated capsule that contains seeds, which can float and disperse in water, aiding in the colonization of new areas.
