- Synopsis
- On this page there is an image of a branch of an Umbrella Tree (Schefflera arbicola) with three aerial roots growing down to the soil. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. There are two groups of leaves at the top of the page, each with seven green, pointed oval leaves in a circular umbrella arrangement. These are attached to the plans pale brown branch by delicate stems leading down the page. Follow the branch to the right and you will find three aerial roots. Two of them fork into two before going down to the red earth at the bottom of the page. Many other plants have aerial roots including Ivy, many orchids, mangroves trees and the fantastical Banyan tree.
