Kapok Tree Buttress Roots Near Khenifra

by Lydia Walter

Massive fluted buttress roots of a kapok tree rise from dark, damp earth, their rough gray bark marked by deep vertical fissures. Heavy overcast skies cast a soft, diffused light that falls through the canopy above, creating shifting patches of brightness on the textured wood. Peak autumn colors appear in the fallen leaves scattered across the forest floor, ranging from burnt orange to deep russet. The thick trunks anchor firmly into the soil, their scale dominating the lower frame while the upper branches disappear into the gloom. One root curves sharply at the base, ending in a jagged edge where it meets a cluster of wet, brown foliage.
