Banyan Tree Sapling
Code : P13773

The Banyan tree (Ficus benghalensis) is a massive, evergreen fig known for its distinctive aerial roots that grow from branches, descend to the soil, and thicken into supportive trunks, creating vast, forest-like canopies that can cover acres. It features large, leathery, elliptical leaves and a grey-brown bark that exudes a milky latex, growing into a giant, long-lived tree iconic in the Indian subcontinent, serving vital ecological and cultural roles.
