Trees are an essential component of any landscape, providing both aesthetic and functional benefits. They have long been recognized as important for improving the quality of the environment, particularly in urban areas where the environment is deteriorating at an accelerated rate. The significance of planting trees is now widely understood.

The book Flowering Trees begins by discussing India's history of tree cultivation, the spiritual and religious significance of trees, and the role of trees in indigenous landscaping and sacred groves, where their primary function is the conservation of biodiversity. The book also covers the practical uses of trees in modern landscaping, such as reducing glare, modifying the climate, and controlling pollution, as well as their ecological value and various aesthetic uses. Avenue planting is also described in detail. The book also covers principles and designs for planting trees, methods of planting, cultural practices, pruning, and various methods to overcome common problems in tree growing. Additionally, the book discusses the psychological effects of plants on humans and the astrological significance of trees.

The book provides detailed descriptions of ornamental, economic, and medicinal trees. Separate sections on trees for Bonsai and renewable energy are also included.
