The narrative shifts into an educational walk describing pomegranate and jackfruit in detail: appearance, growth, flowers, and fruit structure. Practical and cultural uses are included, from pomegranate remedies for fever and upset stomach to culinary applications of anardana, and jackfruit as a vegetable, fruit, roasted seed snack, and source of dye and traditional remedies.","A Walk Among Trees Nimret Handa  \nNimret Handa  \nThe royal orchard looked lush after the rains. The earth was soft and wet and hada delightful fragrance . The trees looked like they had been washed and each leaf looked like it had been polished by hand.  \nThe head gardener was getting a new tree planted. He directed his helpers to a pit that had been prepared just that morning. The young tree was carefully lowered. All along, the head gardener kept saying, “I will lose  \nmy job and all of you will rot in the darkest chambers of the palace if this tree does not survive. And if it blooms, you won’t have to work another day in your life. You will all be handsomely rewarded.” As an offering to Mother Earth, he threw in sugar cane juice, before the roots of the young tree were patted with mud. Just then the King and his young prince stepped into the orchard.  \nThis was to be the first walk among the trees for the prince with his father.“Father, what is this sapling?” asked the prince, pointing to a plant. “It is a pomegranate sapling. The tree that will have the most beautiful flowers ...”The prince watched his father admiring the trees around them with love and care .  \nPomegranate  \nIt is hard to say which is more beautiful-a pomegranate fruit or the brilliant red flower . The fruit has a deep red colour and is the size of a cricket ball.  \nIt has leathery skin and when it is opened, you find many red, juicy seeds, which look as though they are made of glass. Each seed has a woody, crunchy centre . Some fruits are yellowish pink and have pink seeds. These are  \nalso very tasty.  \nThe pomegranate tree grows to about three metres . The long and narrow leaves are shiny and the branches have a few thorns. In the spring, the tree is covered with scarlet flowers . The petals look as though they are made of crinkly paper.  \nThese flowers have no smell. The petals grow out of a red part called the calyx. After the petals fall, the calyx begins to grow bigger and bigger till it becomes a pomegranate with a crown .  \nPomegranate juice is very tasty and is taken to bring down fever . Pomegranates contain plenty of natural sugars and vitamin C. The dried seeds are made into sour anardana, which is a spice used to flavour pakoras andaloo paranthas. The rind of the pomegranate is dried and powdered and taken to cure an upset stomach.  \nPomegranates are called anar in Hindi. Oneof the most renowned dancers in the court of  \nMughal emperor Akbar was called Anarkali—bud of the anar—because she was so beautiful.  \nSome pomegranates are called kandhari, as once they were only grown in a place called Kandahar, in Afghanistan.  \nJackfruit  \nThe jackfruit grows on a tall tree with a thick foliage of dark green leaves. The jackfruit does not grow just on the branches like other fruit, but also on the tree trunk.  \nAnother amazing fact is that when the jackfruit tree turns very old, the fruit can also grow on those roots which come out above the ground.  \nThe large, oblong fruits can sometimes  \nweigh as much as 40 kilograms . Their rough skins are covered with conical studs. When jackfruits are young they are green and eaten as a vegetable, but when they are ripe and turn yellowish-brown they are eaten as a fruit. The ripe fruit has a strong characteristic smell and not everyone likes it.  \nThe seeds of the jackfruit are also very tasty. They can be roasted and eaten. Fried jackfruit makes delicious chips. When sugared and dried, the fruits make excellent candy. The leaves are warmed and used to foment wounds and stop swellings.  \nThe wood of this tree is not attacked by termites. An orange dye is made by boiling the wood. This is used to colour the robes of Buddhist monks.
