A banyan tree is a fig that starts life growing on another plant. Its seeds germinate in cracks on a host tree. The word banyan is occasionally used to include fig trees in general even the fruit bearing type. Like other fig species, banyans bear multiple fruit in pods. Banyan trees figure prominently in several Asian and Pacific religions and myths.
