15 Weird Shaped Trees You Won’t Believe Actually Exist

Bottle Tree

The bottle trees are named for their appearance of standing erect like long, narrow bottles filled with water. The plant can grow up to 18 feet tall and has long, slender branches that twist and turn like the necks of wine bottles.

The tree is found only in southwestern Africa, specifically in Namibia and South Africa. It is considered one of the most deadly trees on Earth because its leaves are covered in small spines that can cause severe irritation if they come into contact with the skin.

The flowers that blossom from the tree are typically pink and white, with a red centre.
