Crawling Tree


This old mesquite tree appears to be crawling across this yard.  I've seen two or three trees like this around town.  I don't know why they have grown this way but, they spread out and cover a large area.  In this case, it pretty much hides the house behind it.

  2. Growing sideways gives the home owners some extra privacy.

  3. A big tree that doesn't have to worry too much about supporting a big weight. Nature is smart!

  5. That's a great growth pattern. I wonder how old it is?

  8. Wow! I've seen trees doing this when we have been walking in the bush Sharon but never like this in a garden. It looks pretty fabulous and I bet the kids have a good time playing in it ✨
