Trees That Grow Well In Water

PictureA Mangrove Forest
Numerous trees, including a good number of flowering and deciduous trees, flourish best in good-draining soil. Trees that grow in water, called swamp trees, are typically found in the swamps and marshes. 

Trees That Grow in Water

Mangrove

Mangrove trees grow and flourish even with their roots always engulfed in saltwater. There are a few dominant species of mangrove trees all situated in the state of Florida, the U.S. Around the globe, there are more than 45 various mangrove tree types. Mangroves are quite valuable to the coastal setting. They offer a habitat for birds and marine organisms, as well as help stop coastal erosion.

Pumpkin Ash
The pumpkin ash tree is a type of ash that blooms in standing water. It is referred to as pumpkin ash because the base of the trunk expands to a pumpkin-shaped figure when developing in water. This tree is along the rivers and in swamps of the Atlantic coastal plain. A quick-growing, tall tree, pumpkin ash in ash quickly grows over 120 feet.

Water Tupelo
The tupelo tree is in swamps and places where standing water ensues during much of the year. It resists flooded conditions quickly, as well as offering a home and food for wildlife and birds. These trees grow in the Deep South and can reach over 50 feet tall. 

Bald Cypress
When most folks think of the Deep South swamps, they think of bare cypress trees. These massive trees, often covered with moss, have thin, long needles and can survive over 500 years old. The bald cypress is famous for its trunk, which grows "knees" at the base. The knees are part of the roots, which stick out as knob-like shapes over the water. 

The trees are referred to as "pneumatophores," helping the roots get oxygen from the air when the space around the tree floods. Bald cypress trees develop in both flowing and standing water. Like the tupelo tree, they are a vital source of shelter and food for wildlife.
