🌳 Pride of India (Lagerstroemia speciosa / Jarul)
The Pride of India, also called Jarul or Queen’s Crape Myrtle, is a breathtaking flowering tree that dazzles with its spectacular clusters of purple, pink, or lavender blossoms. Blooming from late spring to monsoon, the tree can transform entire streets and parks into a vibrant sea of color. Growing up to 20 meters tall, Jarul has smooth, cream-colored bark that peels in patches, adding to its ornamental appeal. Its crown is dense and spreading, offering shade along with a seasonal floral display that has earned it the title of one of the most beautiful avenue trees in India.
Importance of the Tree: A Versatile Marvel
The importance of Jarul extends to ecology, culture, and health. Ecologically, its flowers attract bees, butterflies, and birds, strengthening biodiversity. Its large canopy helps cool the surrounding environment, making it ideal for urban areas. Medicinally, Jarul leaves have long been used in Ayurveda and traditional medicine for managing diabetes, obesity, and urinary issues, owing to their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. The tree also helps control soil erosion and adds greenery to degraded landscapes. Culturally, Pride of India is cherished for its elegance and longevity, often planted in public spaces, campuses, and gardens as a symbol of prosperity and grace.
