Avenue Trees

About Avenue Trees

Avenue trees are for open ground rather than a balcony or terrace — a farmhouse, society lawn, roadside strip or a garden with room for a tree to reach its full height. This small collection leans towards Indian species with cultural or practical significance: the Kalpa Vriksha (Wish Tree) and Coral Jasmine (Parijat) are tagged as sacred trees, Bael (Bilva) is tagged both sacred and fruiting — making it one of the few trees here you'd also plant for produce — and the Indian Almond is tagged coastal-tolerant and fast growing, useful for difficult sites near the coast.

For flowering cover, Lagerstroemia (Crepe Myrtle) and White Champaca add seasonal blooms and fragrance to a larger planting, while the Golden Bottlebrush's weeping form and bee-friendly flowers suit a driveway or boundary line. These are all long-term plantings — expect a tree here to take years to reach the shade or canopy size it's known for, so it's worth checking each product's mature height and growing conditions before planting one on a property you intend to keep.
