I have covered the trees as described in the Vedas, Upanishads, classical Sanskrit and Tamil literature, folk tales and temple Sthala Puranas. I have got more articles in my blog which would be published as second part. I have lifted some parts from some books for adding my comments, particularly to compare them with the available materials in Tamil and Sanskrit. I thank those original contributors. Hindus considered plants as Gods or the divine representatives on earth. The emphasis is on optimum use of them without destroying them completely. It is also insisted that it is our duty to raise and preserve them for posterity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Every Root an Anchor, writer and arborist R. Bruce Allison celebrates Wisconsin's most significant, unusual, and historic trees. More than one hundred tales introduce us to trees across the state, some remarkable for their size or age, others for their intriguing histories. From magnificent elms to beloved pines to Frank Lloyd Wright's oaks, these trees are woven into our history, contributing to our sense of place. They are anchors for time-honored customs, manifestations of our ideals, and reminders of our lives' most significant events. For this updated edition, Allison revisits the trees' histories and tells us which of these unique landmarks are still standing. He sets forth an environmental message as well, reminding us to recognize our connectedness to trees and to manage our tree resources wisely. As early Wisconsin conservationist Increase Lapham said, "Tree histories increase our love of home and improve our hearts. They deserve to be told and remembered."
Download or read book Cities and Canopies written by Harini Nagendra and published by Viking. This book was released on 2019-05 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Native and imported, sacred and ordinary, culinary and floral, favourites of various kings and commoners over the centuries, trees are the most visible signs of nature in cities, fundamentally shaping their identities. Trees are storehouses of the complex origins and histories of city growth, coming as they do from different parts of the world, brought in by various local and colonial rulers. From the tree planted by Sarojini Naidu at Dehradun's clock tower to those planted by Sher Shah Suri and Jahangir on Grand Trunk Road, trees in India have served, above all, as memory keepers. They are our roots: their trunks our pillars, their bark our texture, and their branches our shade. Trees are nature's own museums. Drawing on extensive research, Cities and Canopies is a book about both the specific and the general aspects of these gentle life-giving creatures.
