The baobab is found in the savannas of African and India, mostly around the equator. It can grow up to 25 meters tall and can live for several thousand years. The baobab is leafless for nine months of the year. The baobab looks as if it was picked and replanted upside down, hence the nick-name "upside-down tree". Also the tree is up to 33 feet in diameter. Baobabs are fire resistant and people and animals often use them for water, which is why the baobab tree recieved another nick-name, “water bottle trees”.
What is the nick-name of this tree?
