Empire with David Olusoga, Series 1: Episode
Really enjoyed this three part documentary. Learned a lot. Some of it predictably grim where humans are concerned but lighter moments later in series include finding out that post WWII converted agricultural tanks sent by Brits to clear forestry in parts of Africa "bounced off" the mighty Baobab trees and brought work to a halt the plans had to be cancelled.🌴💪

The Grandidier’s baobab (Adansonia grandidieri), also known as the renala, may live to be 300 years old or older—but scientists are unable to confirm their exact age because baobabs don’t produce annual growth rings. This species of baobab is found only in Madagascar’s dry deciduous forests. It can grow as much as 98 ft (30 m) tall, and its trunk can have a diameter of up to 9.8 ft (3 m).

🌳 Baobabs, the “Tree of Life,” are believed to live up to two millennia. Their water‑storing trunks sustain life in arid climates, and dusk‑blooming flowers feed bats and hawk moths.

The #Baobab #Tree is often called the "upside-down tree" due to its distinctive appearance, with sparse branches that resemble roots reaching towards the sky when it's leafless during the dry season.

These remarkable trees, native to Africa, Madagascar, and Australia, are renowned for their ability to store vast amounts of water in their massive trunks, allowing them to survive in arid environments.
