In Illinois, the natural reproduction limit . . . @armetisius doesn't mention bald cypress, but I could speculate the knees would make it difficult . . . but that is shear speculation on my part. . . . So who knows why they make knees?
That was the point of my entire conjecture; it is ALL speculation on any of our parts
on this topic or some others. There are/were times that we could not possibly have any real
comprehension of that went into play forming these plants make up. And just like in the movie,
"The Core" , ". . . yes, yes; that's all science really is, best guess."
We can speculate--that is all.
