The natural habitat of Rhizophora mucronata is estuaries, tidal creeks and flat coastal areas subject to daily tidal flooding. It seems to be more tolerant of inundation than other mangrove species and often forms an evergreen fringe to mangrove areas. It sometimes occurs as a pure stand or may grow with Rhizophora apiculata. [6]

[5] The remaining mangrove genera are restricted to the IWP region. [5]
All plant foods contain fiber, so you any vegetable (or fruit!) will give you a good helping of fiber. But a few veggies get "MVP status" due to their especially high fiber content, Linsenmeyer says.
