Peepal planted today is a shady tree.
It purifies the environment. It has religious and Ayurvedic significance. Abounding in antibiotic elements, Neem is known as the supreme medicine. Gulmohar is considered one of the most beautiful trees in the world. Flowers blooming in large clusters among the well-ordered leaves of Gulmohar give a distinct attraction to the tree. It is also rich in medicinal properties.
