Product information "Taxodium dubium, Miocene; GER"
During the tertiary period, waters in the Rhineland rose so high that the Lower Rhine Bay was an ocean. Mangrove forests and coastal swamps of this period accumulated large quantities of plant material, resulting in considerable coal seams. These remains of the bald cypress can sometimes be found in them.
