We have kept all the banyan tree species in this plot to show off this,” said Dr.

There is a ‘arrogyam’ plot with many drug plant species labeled with the name of the disease that heals, the formulation and direction of use! “Likewise, we have a plot called ‘Sacred Grove’ which is decorated with very important trees such as ‘Radha Vad’, ‘Sita Vad’, ‘Chandan’, ‘Krishna Vad’, ‘Kunti’ and ‘Putranjiva’.
Each tree has its own significance in connection with religious values ​​or treatment, “said Snehal Chavda, another park supervisor.
‘Paper of the Provider’ consists of oxygen enrichment plants such as snake plants and mother-in-law while the palm palm plot consists of various palm species.
Interestingly, visitors will also be able to shop for botanical gardens.
“Students and research scholars we have prepared these products.
These products include organic fertilizers developed in the botanical garden themselves from organic waste, essential oil perfumes extracted in our department laboratory.
And fresh juice varieties prepared from plants and flowers – hibiscus juice, clitoris juice, rose juice.
They are sold by our Phytochemistry research scholars, “said Nagar.
