Aesthetic value of trees for an urban settlement is widely recognised. They are rightly suggested as lungs for a city. A conscientious citizen could look for several other benefits from trees around him and should get involved in the upkeep and conservation of trees. Knowing the trees by their names could be an initial step in this direction and is basic to environment education.
