IDENTIFYING LOCAL FLORA

Look at the leaves: Needle-like = Deodar cedar; broad and glossy = Sheesham.

Check the bark: Smooth and peeling = Eucalyptus; dark and ridged = Acacia.

Notice the shape: Tall evergreens mark the Mountains; wide, shady crowns dominate the plains.

Watch the seasons: Gulmohar explodes in red blossoms in Spring; Chinar turns golden in Autumn.

Build memory: Keep a small trail journal, leaf shapes, or describe bark texture.
