It captures ones attentiom to get involved in plant world. Good for nature and plant enthusiasts.

Shimla landscape is so delicate, precarious. It houses innumerable economically and medically important plant resources. Along with this write up readers would have got enriched if threatened flora , fauna and their inter dependency, their population threats was mentioned with one or two analogies. This is to sensitise people towards their immediate environment and act accordingly for management of Natural resources.
Best wishes

It is worrying that many beautiful and useful plants are getting rarer in this landscape. Western Himalayan Temperate Arboretum at Potter’s Hill, Shimla is sure a one off effort at conserving trees and other woody flora of the region. Mr. Vinay Tandon and Dr. Vaneet Jishtu deserve three cheers for conceptualising, facilitating, and developing this conservatory. Since the threat to the plants is continuing, and at a pace which is becoming aggressive with every passing day, I would have liked the interview to touch upon the threats to the flora, and citizens’ responsibility towards its conservation . Great interview Vaneet…. Congratulations!
