Question

One of the most handsome trees of the Indian plains is the Arjun. It is tall, soaring towards the sky, with a supporting trunk and horizontal branches. The foliage is neither too dark a green nor very dense. This tree has an airy feel. Some trees are dark and forbidding, you wouldn't want to go and sit under them, especially in the evening, when the light is low. Some have a foliage that is insubstantial, but some are just right, not too dense and not too light. The Arjun tree was created at a moment when nature's mood was benign. It has a long, straight trunk and a rounded crown, with somewhat drooping branches. The big oval leaves are leathery and grow opposite each other.
