Development and Natural Wealth

​This botanical garden preserves many rare exotic and native trees. These include the tall 'White Siris' (Kinai), a 250 to 300-year-old Banyan tree, Baobab, Cannonball Tree (Kailaspati), Brownea, and Christmas Tree. There are about 180 species of trees in this garden. The management continuously strives to enhance the garden's richness through planned annual tree-planting campaigns.

​The garden is a haven for giant vines (Lianas). Watching the 'Malu' vine (Bauhinia vahlii), covered in dense branches and fragrant white flowers, is a delightful experience. The 'Piluk' vine, which produces white flowers and red fruits, and the 'Garambi' (Entada rheedii), known for having the largest pods and seeds, are special features here. The white-flowered 'Madhavi-lata' and the massive 'Jewel Vine' are true jewels of the garden. Botany students, nature lovers, and children frequently visit to enjoy this natural beauty.
