In India only four species (C. circinalis, C. rumphii, C. beddomei C. pectinata) grow in wild whereas C. revoluta and C. siamensis are widely grown as ornamental plant in gardens.  The plants are perennial, slow growing evergreen, palm like tree with an average height between 1.5 - 3 m.  Its main plant body is sporophytic, diploid, dominant and can be differentiated into three parts – roots, stem and leaves. Root There are of two types normal and coralloid roots. Normal tap roots:  It is long lived and grow deep into the soil and form tap root system.  The function of these roots is to fix the plant in the soil and absorption of water and other minerals. Coralloid Roots:  From the normal roots develop some small lateral apogeotropic branches near the ground surface.  These roots grow horizontally, dichotomously branched and become swollen at their tips and forms knob like or coral like appearance and hence called as coralloid roots.  The roots possess lenticles which help in respiration. Root cap and root hairs are absent in coralloid roots.  These roots get infected with BGA (Anabena or other). The algae supply fixed nitrogen and the roots provides shelter and protection.
