Sadly no. It's called the upside down tree because it looks that way due to the way it was cultivated. https://web.archive.org/web/20161101060819/http://old.ubyssey.ca/culture/discover-the-best-trees-on-campus-992/

I don't know if flipping one would work but there a tree at my in-laws that fell over after a storm, snapped at the base probably a good 6m tall thing, and last time a saw it it was growing branches upright along the trunk and looked like it had shot new roots down from the underside, so yer plausible at the least I think

Depends on the tree. A lot of palms that get topped due to high winds just die

No, although I wouldn’t put it past a mangrove or redwood to actually do this if we gave it a go.

Hmmm, do mangroves count as shrubs or bushes?
