Baobab: The Upside Down Tree

The Baobab tree also known as the upside down tree, for its branches look like roots sticking up in the air. Baobab mainly grow in Madagascar, Africa and Australia. The special look about this tree is the bloated or swollen trunk. It is said its trunk can store up to 120,000 liters (about 30,000 gallons) of water to endure during the dry season.



If we grow these natural trees, we’ll have natural water storage and even natural medicines for us. According to News Target, the Baobab is used to help treat fever, diarrhea, dysentery, malaria, smallpox, and inflammation. Here is another look at the amazing Baobab.
