Banyan plant
Hello friends, I hope you all are well and healthy. Stay in your home and be safe, enjoy your life.
Banyan plant
My photography today is about Banyan plant. Its aerial roots grow around the host and may strangle it, hence the name "strangler fig". The trunk is massive, fluted. The bark is smooth, softly puberulous when young. The leaves are large, 8-25 cm long x 6-20 cm broad, stoutly petiolated. The lamina is coriaceous, nerved, ovate to obovate in shape. The lamina is glabrous on the upper face and finely pubescent beneath. is a large, long-lived, fast-growing evergreen tree up to 20 (-25 m) tall. It has a wide leafy crown of horizontal branches covering up to 100 m around, and surrounded by aerial roots. The banyan starts as an epiphyte. Its seeds can be laid by birds at branch forks and germinate on the host treeIts aerial roots grow around the host and may strangle it, hence the name "strangler fig". The trunk is massive, fluted. The bark is smooth, softly puberulous when young. The leaves are large, 8-25 cm long x 6-20 cm broad, stoutly petiolated. The lamina is coriaceous, nerved, ovate to obovate in shape. The lamina is glabrous on the upper face and finely pubescent beneath. . I am going to share with my friends. I wish that you'll be happy after seeing this just.
