In this part of Florida we’ve seen several Banyan trees.  They are in the same family as a Fica tree, but have the unique attribute that the branches put down roots as well as the base of the tree.  The branch roots snake down into the ground and often bundle with other roots.  There are several here at the RV park, and a very huge one at the Lighthouse grounds that we visited.  Our guide told us the largest banyan tree in the world is in India and covers over 11 acres!
