Mangrove. A name applied to certain small trees that grow along tropical and semi-tropical seacoasts and produce many trunks or rooting shoots whereby the plant holds its place or marches on tide flats. The name is usually restricted to Rhizophora Mangle (Rhizophoraceae), which grows in tropical America and the seacoasts of Florida. The black mangrove is Avicennia nitida (Verbenaceae) of the Gulf coast and tropical America; and the name mangrove is applied to species of this genus in other parts of the world. For an account of the curious propagation of the Rhizophora. see page 980, "Cyclopedia of American Horticulture.
