Mangrove is a viviparous plant.

The mangrove is the only species of tree in the world that can grow in the swampy ground along the coast. A special species of forest vegetation - the mangrove tree - grows in the tidal zones lying between land and sea in China's subtropical areas. Its seeds remain hanging on the mother tree until saplings appear. Some then fall into the mud and take root, while others are carried to other areas by seawater. The mangrove tree has a marvelous speed of reproduction and growth. By and by the tree roots and branches mix up, creating a kind of natural beauty.

Transportation: Take the bus from Beihai, about two hours' drive.
