How could I create a believable Tree World, in which the Trees would float in the oceans, they would grow on surface of water, horizontally

This world is all water, and I want the trees to be the only thing that represents land. The trees are horizontally positioned, and start from a large self sufficient floating seed pod, much like a coconut would. They would lengthen faster than they would widen, during the growth process.

Naturally the size of these are twenty thousands of times bigger than the widths of the giants of earth. The roots would glean nutrients from the water, and have some kind of mechanism for trapping the fish for food, thus categorizing the tree as carnivorous. The structure is questionable as far as shape and anatomy of its trunk, limbs, and bark. All those things would have to be shaped so that the the tree is habitable for humans.

What could I improve to make this more believable, or is it believable at all?
