Vasiṣṭha said: There were many trees with water basins made at their feet such as the mango, the Priyāla (the tree Buchanania latifolia), the jack tree, the Madhūka (Bassia latifolia), the Jambū (rose apple), and Plakṣa (ficus religiosa). Along the banks of the lakes beautiful trees were grown such as Nāga (the Mesua roxburghi), the Ketakī (Pandanus odoratissimus), the Punnāga (nutmeg) and Campaka (Michellia champacca). These trees were frequently resorted to by birds.
