Mr Balamurugan may try his luck in nurseries around Lalbagh ( Siddapura area).  They sell varieties of seedlings of  plants and tree species.   Also check inside the Lal bagh (Government nursery)  located near the rock.   Furthermore, there are many forest nurseries nearby Bangalore.   Check with the Forest deparment officers also.  They are helpful.

Dear Sirs,
Thanks for your advise.
The nurseries around Lalbagh area have silk cotton white. I am looking for silk cotton red which is more bird friendly
Also Indian nettle / charcoal tree is not in the radar of FD / other nurseries as nobody actually buys them. Hence I am on the lookout for other sources. The Indian nettle trees die after 5 to 7 years due to some stem borer or rotting near the base of the stem. So people dont grow these trees except estate people who use it for shade as it grows quickly. Again this tree is very bird friendly and the we see lot of pompodor and green footed green pigeons on them along with other fly catchers. But unfortunately all the trees which germinated from ow dung broght from another area and grew 7 years are dying. New saplings are not coming as we are in a moist deciduous / semi evergreen area of Mudumalai. Not sure how to make the plant regrow again in our area.
best regards
Bala

Dear Balamurugan ji,
Good to find that you are interested in planting native trees which attract birds. One way of going about it is to plant pioneer trees of moist deciduous forests and then to plant umbrella species which are fig trees of those areas. Could ask Ncf at Valparai or Frlht at Bangalore for advice and saplings.
Regards,
Dr Badri Narayanan.
