Bo Tree,
Bodhi Tree (Bồ Đề) -
Ficus religiosa
This tree is sacred in Hinduism and Buddhism. The
Buddha (Sakyamuni) attained enlightenment under this tree. This member of the ficus
family makes a handsome pot plant, with deeply-veined heart-shaped leaves.
The trunk becomes impressive with age, resembling an ancient tree. Easy to
grow, as other members of Ficus family.
