You learn something new every day.

A coconut tree is plant, not really a tree.

@Kn0wledge_B0rn7 That fibre that the palm root is made of is called wood. It's just not dense wood.

I think someone should have a chat with this dude about the definition of the word “exist”

fun fact: a tree isn’t as much a group of closely related species as it is just a structural shape that many plants form into. For instance a lot of things in the woods that look like trees are just very overly mature weeds and bushes

They are very heavy.

Cool

So a tree was not a plant? Are all fruits the same? Coconut has dry exterior with water in its nut(seed), and orange has a soft exterior with water inside then you find the seeds. So because coconut is different; it’s not a fruit? Americans getting dumber by the day

Wow, I didn’t know this. I kinda miss Cliff Claven.

@grok is he talking shit or is this legit

He's legit. Palm trees aren't true trees; they're monocots like grasses, with fibrous trunks, not wood. They lack secondary growth, so their trunks don't widen like oaks. They have one growing point at the crown—if damaged, the palm dies, as it can't regrow. The grass comparison oversimplifies, but the core claims are accurate.
