Interesting plants of AJCB Indian Botanic Garden, Shibpur, Howrah: SCREW PINE, PANDANUS (Pandanus foetidus) : SCFEB27
Sukla Chanda
Pandanus foetidus Roxb. (Pandanaceae)
Dioecious; shrubs to medium-sized trees, typically with a broad canopy, heavy fruit, and moderate growth rate.The trunk is stout, wide-branching, and ringed with many leaf scars. They commonly have many thick prop roots near the base, which provide support as the tree grows top-heavy with leaves, fruit, and branches.
Species growing on exposed coastal headlands and along beaches have thick 'prop roots' as anchors in the loose sand.
Thanks,
