Correct Answer:

halophyte

Halophytes are those plants that occur naturally on soil or in water too salty for the average plant. Many plants growing in salt-lakes and sea-coasts show a special type of germination of their seeds, known as vivipary. The seed germinates inside the fruit while still attached to the parent tree and nourished by it e.g. Rhizophora.
