Well, in our botany lectures at Delhi University, they teach that the coconut has a fibrous mesocarp for buoyant ocean dispersal, and root wilt is a phytoplasma disease. But having grown up in the coastal village of Alappuzha, I've watched countless coconuts wash ashore *already sprouting* from that "water" — the endosperm isn't just food, it's the very cradle for the embryo's voyage. And root wilt? The textbooks call it fatal, but my grandmother's trees, though stunted, still yield a few nuts every year, defying the diagrams.
