Just recently I've been looking at the ground as I walk a little bit more than usual, as I have discovered tree roots! With a mixture of native and exotic trees around our suburb, there are all sorts of variations on the simple root system. Above and below are the amazing roots of the European Plane tree swelling out across the footpath.
These roots are of a native Queensland Box tree.
This is the very prolific and fibrous root system of a huge palm tree.
Another Plane tree with the roots looking almost as though they have been poured out and then solidified.
This is a very extensive root system of an Oak tree, but I don't know which species it is.
