Planting trees
Big spreading trees like mango and tall trees like coconut etc. should not
be planted in the east, north and north-east of a plot with building. It
will obstruct the morning sun rays. Big trees can be grown in south and
west sides.
Coconut, betal, neem, margosa, ashoka, sandal and plants like tulsi
(basil), turmeric, marigold (red), roses (all except black), jasmine and
banana are considered very auspicious.
Thorny trees should not be planted near a house. It is believed that
planting palm, gooseberry, tamarind trees and cotton plants will destroy
wealth and bring miseries to the inmates. Lime or lemon tree with yellow
flowers is also not recommended.
