Banyan Fig Fact Sheet ~ Aston
Banyan Fig Fact Sheet
It belongs to the Moraceae family, it is a Ficus genius, and subgenus is F. . Urostigma. | |
Roots/Aka |
Older banyan trees are identified by floating support roots that grow into thick, woody trunks, which can become identical from the main trunk with age. Old trees can spread sideways by using these floating roots to grow over a wide area. |
Wood /Sino | Banyan was one of the trees planted in this attempt to isolate a suitable plant protein. The wood from the root branches is considerably stronger and more useful. |
Bark /kili oe fuu ninu | They grow from seeds that land on other trees. The roots they send down smother their throw and grow into thick, branch-supporting pillars that resemble new tree trunks. Banyans are the world's biggest trees in terms of the area they cover. The biggest one alive today is in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. |
Leaves and shoots Lau ‘o e niu | A number of wild banyan kind that compete for sunlight, especially of the genus Ficus, presenting this strangling habit. The leaves of the banyan tree are large, leathery, glossy, green, and elliptical. Like most figs, the leaf bud is covered by two large scales. As the leaf develops the scales dock. |
Mature Trees Fefe fuu niu he’ene fuu lahi | Growing a banyan tree requires a lot of space, as mature trees become quite large. This tree should not be planted near foundations, driveways, streets or even your home, as its canopy alone can spread quite far.

THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS
THE BRAVE MARMALADE
The Adventure of The Brave Carrot Marmalade
Hi I am the Jar of Carrot Marmalade also called Mordy , and I'm gonna tell the story of how I was made and how I got to Auckland. It's a really interesting story so you should read it.
I was Once an ordinary carrot. I did what other carrots do “grow and grow and grow. Too much growing means getting rotten or picked to be sold at the supermarket, and get eaten.
Now the story begins.
I was a normal Carrot growing then I was picked by a Carrot pickers who sold me to the supermarket, then a mysterious man who is called by the name John Thompson, picked me & all my brothers were all left behind I was the only one who got taken to the ship called Endeavour, who's leader captain Cook, then I knew that I was endangered because: I was bought by John Thompson Captains Cooks Chef!!
I was taken to the one place I feared the most, the “kitchen”! Then he started on another carrot my long lost brother, Called Rick, after Jimmy it was me, I was grated like I was worthless but I, and my long lost brother Rick wasn’t the only people who was put in there, then he started adding 4 cups of water, 6 cups of sugar, i was put in to a boiling hot jar, which i thought was spar/hot tub, then i felt like a whirl pool because i was getting stirred, then he put me in another glass jar, and then I was sealed up with a metal lid, Then that same night I was asleep then I was abducted by aliens, then i saw a dirty seagles smelly foot trying to open the jar , then The dirty seagles dropped me in the water, next to Mercury bay, and in a place called Captain cooks beach. And ever since that I could never see the sun again. Until 251 one long year, I was found by some fishermen then they sold it to the museum But then I was used to a tool from The endeavour because whatever is old is ancient that's what I learned.
So I was standing still trying to look muscular for the ladies because they were looking at me. Then a Tsunami came that flooded the area around me, I got floated away, like rubbish being squished, Then I was saved by this muscular handsome beautiful man named Taniela, and a boy next to him called Aston, that was way more handsome and even more muscular. Then I saw a board saying Auckland. Then I was sent back to the museum, I was angry Because they were playing games with me and my long lost brother Rick and I had to do something but I was sent back To The old people that saved me, and Then I raged at them but they didn't really understand me and also Aston tried me and looked a little angry and sick then he laughed with a d face.
THE END OF A AMAZING STORY
My long lost brothers 1 rick, 2 jimmy, 3 mike.
