A mangrove is a shrub or small tree that grows in coastal saline or brackish water.
Mangroves are salt tolerant trees and adapted to life in harsh coastal conditions.
Containing a complex salt filtration system, in the roots to cope with the conditions
They are adapted to the low oxygen (anoxic) conditions of waterlogged mud.

Red mangroves, which can survive in the most inundated areas store salt in cells

They prop above the water level with stilt roots absorbing air through pores in the bark.
Red mangroves, which can survive in the most inundated areas store salt in cells
Red mangroves exclude salt by having significantly impermeable roots

Acting as an ultra-filtration mechanism to exclude sodium salts from the rest of the plant.
