Really fascinating trees...
Breathing knees, knee roots, or aerial knees are formed by some swamp and mangrove trees. They break through the soil surface as root loops or negatively gravitropic (growing in the opposite direction of gravity) outgrowths of the horizontally oriented, near-surface subterranean root system. Respiratory knees serve as pneumatophores; their aerenchyma (aeration tissue) ensures the gas exchange of the subterranean root system in the oxygen-poor sediment.
