If you ever find yourself on an African safari, you’ll notice how unique the trees are throughout your journey. They vary from really thin trunks to possibly the thickest tree trunks you’ve ever seen. Even if you can’t make it to Africa, it’s great to see some natural beauty from around the world, so here are some of the most beautiful trees found in Africa.
Baobab Tree
One of the most iconic trees of Africa are the Baobab trees. Found throughout the continent, they are definitely one of the most unique trees in the world. What makes this tree so unique is its enormously thick trunks. Especially when you compare the trunk to the leaves and branches, it just seems unnatural, but it totally is natural! During the summer they even produce large white flowers!
Dragon Blood Trees
Another super unique tree you’ll find along the Arabian Sea is the Dragon Blood Tree. It’s named after the super red color of the sap that the tree produces. Besides the color of the sap, this tree is unique in shape and looks. Shaped like an umbrella, you can see the underside of all the branches because leaves only grow at the top!
