The seagrape in our back yard is about 40 feet high, Bob brought it home about 20 years ago. While fishing a dead looking root floated past him and he brought it home and planted it. I scoffed and said "it will never grow, it is dead". if you follow me you KNOW I have said this before and it always grows.
Leaves are thick and heart-shaped from 3 to 10 inches, these photos were taken in the month of April. New growth comes out and the old turns orange and then drops to the ground. (another story)
What did the grape say when the elephant stepped on it? Nothing.
It just let out a little wine.
What kind of tree do fingers grow on?
A palm tree.

How pretty, there are so many different colors in those older leaves.
So what you are saying is that Bobby Tomatoseed will plant anything from a seed to roots floating on the ocean. And it all grows, amazing!
I had one of these and forget what happened. They are one of my favorite!! Love the color. I do have another (signature tree)..the leaves are pretty and round too. You probably know which one-
This is really a beautiful plant.I am not surprised that this dead root would grow,it seems that everything your husband touches,grows.He doesn't just have green thumbs,but fingers too. :)

I LOVE these pictures!! And what a surprise as I was scrolling down to see the orange! This is really unusual to me, I have never seen anything like it. Aren't you curious to taste the grapes? Maybe taste and then spit it out!
You do have these in your yard?
Can't believe what a green thumb Bob has!
And I like the orange leaf too!
let out a little wine....bwahahaha that cracked me up
That is one amazing looking plant, I love it. Your husband can grow anything.
what an unusual plant ... {laughing at your riddles}
These might make really, really good jelly... yes?
Another amazing growth, Sandra. Also very photogenic.
The fourth one down really reminds me of those here..must be! They really stand out! They are found all over and especially at the beach. Hmm...)
I'm in love again! OH, I wish I had one of these trees! Wonderful leaves.
