As mentioned earlier here is a write up on the Botanical plants for navagrha and their effects, on humans.
Sacred Herbs
Arka Plant / Milkweed Plant (Sun)
"Arka Bhasma" is used in
the talisman that is made for maintaining the effects of the placement of Sun
in the horoscope. If Arka Bhasma is used when the Sun is placed well in the
horoscope, it leads to dignity, leadership, confidence, power and nobility. The
individual is a strong, compassionate, pious, well read and leads a happy life.
When the Sun is ill placed in the horoscope, it leads to low self esteem and
energy, lack of confidence and negative results in life. Arka Bhasma nullifies
the malefic effects of the ill placement of Sun.
Palasha Plant / Flame-of-the-forest Tree (Moon)
"Palasha Bhasma" is used
for maintaining the effects of Moon on the horoscope. If the Moon is well
placed in the horoscope, the use of "Palasha Bhasma" leads to good
habits, stable life and health and the individual is hard working, wealthy and
well respected.
If the Moon is ill placed in the horoscope, it leads to depression,
hypersensitivity and stress which are removed by the use of "Palasha
Bhasma".
Pippala Tree / Peepul Tree (Jupiter)
"Pippala Bhasma" is used for
controlling the effects of Jupiter. When the Jupiter is well placed in the
horoscope, the use of "Pippala Bhasma" leads towards spiritualism,
caring, optimism, faith, good judgment and the individual is blessed with power
and respect.
If the Jupiter is ill-placed in the horoscope, it leads to unhappiness,
selfishness, egotism, sloth and greed and all these bad effects are removed by
the use of "Pippala Bhasma".
Durva
Grass / Bermuda Grass (Rahu)
"Durva Bhasma" is essential for controlling the effects of Rahu. If
the Rahu is well placed in an individual's horoscope, it leads to inspiration,
originality, insight and uniqueness. The use of " Durva Bhasma" makes
the individual wealthy and fortunate.
If the planet Rahu is ill placed in the horoscope it leads to paranoia,
addictions, mental ailments, stress and troubles. The use of "Durva
Bhasma" removes such bad effects of Rahu.
Apamarga / Prickly Chaff Plant (Mercury)
"Apamarga Bhasma" is ideal for
controlling the effects of planet Mercury. If Mercury is well placed in the
horoscope of an individual, it leads to rationality, wit and dexterity. The use
of "Apamarga Bhasma" makes an individual happy, educated, fortunate
and highly respected.
If the Mercury is ill-placed in the horoscope, it leads to lack of
concentration, speech and hearing impediments, lack of vitality and lack of
communication. The "Apamarga Bhasma" leads to a removal of these
malefic effects of Mercury.
Audumbara / Doomar (Venus)
"Audumbara Bhasma" is used for maintaining the good effects of planet
Venus. If the placement of Venus is good in the horoscope, it leads to
attractiveness, grace, elegance and long life. The use of the "Audumbara
Bhasma" makes an individual refined with humanitarian qualities.
When Venus is ill-placed in the horoscope, it leads to vanity, corruption, lack
of taste and refinement and ageing and the "Audumbara Bhasma" is used
to remove these effects of Venus.
Kusa / Sacrificial Grass (Ketu)
"Kusa Bhasma" is used for
controlling the effects of planet Ketu. If Ketu is well placed in the horoscope
of an individual, it leads to spiritualism, sensitivity and high intuitive
powers. The use of "Kusa Bhasma" makes the individual wealthy and
protected against evil.
If the Ketu is ill-placed in the horoscope, it will lead towards eccentricity,
irrational behaviour, fanaticism and addictions like gambling and fatal
diseases such as cancer. To remove these effects of Ketu, "Kusa
Bhasma" is used.
Shami Tree/Prosopis (Saturn)
"Shami Bhasma" is used to
control the effects of Saturn (Shani). If Saturn is well placed in the
horoscope, it leads to discipline in life, responsibility, humbleness and if
"Shami Bhasma" is used by the individual, he has a long life, is
charitable and proficient in every work.
If Saturn is ill placed in the horoscope, the individual suffers from
depression, anxiety, fear, loneliness and disorders of the nervous system.
"Shami Bhasma" is used for removing these bad effects of Saturn.
Khadira/Couch Plant (Mars)
"Khadira Bhasma" is used for controlling the effects of the planet
Mars. If Mars is well placed in the horoscope, it leads towards positive
energy, strength, courage, passion, and aggression. The use of "Khadira
Bhasma" makes the individual energetic, learned, well known and noble.
When Mars is ill-placed in the horoscope, it leads to anger, irritability,
instability, aggression and the individual is prone to high blood pressure,
anemia, and impurities in the blood. The "Khadira Bhasma" is used to
counteract these bad effects of Mars.
As mentioned the above plants are planted outside the temple garden, the plant which represents Sun will be in the middle and the other plants planted on the four sides of the Arka milky plant.
Brahmanda Guruji Shri Narendra Babu Sharmaji gave us the information on Nine Planets (Navagrahas) and plant/tree related to it. Guruji recited this Navagraha mantra before starting this topic "Om Namah Suryaya Chandraya Mangalaya Budhayacha Guru Shukra Shanibhyascha Rahuve ketuve Namah"

All the nine grahams (planets) viz Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu (Snake's head) and Ketu (Snake's tail) give us pleasure and serenity and remove obstacles from our way. The names of the seven bodies (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn) are still connected, in some languages, with the seven days of the week. In astrology, great importance is placed on the positions of the various planets in the twelve constellations of the zodiac, the belt around the sky in which the movements of Sun, Moon and planets are confined. All astrology is totally based on the planetary movements and its effect on human beings. Navagrahas along with their consorts are found very rarely even in India.It is one of a kind in Singapore.Navagrahas with their consorts are called SAKTHI SAMETHA NAVAGRAHAS.Praying to the grahas when they are with their consorts is considered to bring immediate positive influence as the grahas are in a cheerful mood.
Each graha devtas are having set plants as and the bhasamas prepared with them are used as to reduce the ill effect created by them.
