Info: Eka Bilvam, commonly referred to as the Bilva tree or Bael tree (scientific name: Aegle marmelos), is native to India and is sacred to Hindus. The leaves, fruit, and other parts of this tree are used in various religious ceremonies and also have medicinal properties.

Plantation:

  1. Soil: Eka Bilvam thrives in a wide range of soils, but well-draining soil is preferred.
  2. Location: Choose a sunny spot for planting, although it can also tolerate partial shade.
  3. Spacing: If planting multiple trees, ensure a distance of at least 8 to 10 feet between each one to provide enough room for growth.
  4. Watering: Water deeply after planting. The tree is drought-resistant once established.

Growing:

  1. Temperature: Eka Bilvam is a tropical to sub-tropical tree, tolerating temperatures from 50°F (10°C) to 104°F (40°C). It can survive minor frosts but prefers warmer climates.
  2. Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer during the growing season. Organic compost can also be beneficial.
  3. Pruning: Prune to remove dead or diseased branches and to shape the tree if desired.

Care:

  1. Pests and Diseases: While relatively hardy, the tree can be susceptible to pests like mealybugs and scales. Neem oil or other organic pesticides can be effective.
  2. Watering: Once established, the Eka Bilvam tree is drought-tolerant. However, regular watering will promote healthier growth.
  3. Harvesting: The fruits can be harvested when they turn from green to a pale yellow or brownish color. They have a hard shell and sweet, aromatic pulp inside.

Benefits:

  1. Medicinal: The leaves, roots, and fruit of Eka Bilvam have been used in Ayurvedic medicine for treating various ailments like digestive disorders, respiratory issues, and diabetes.
  2. Religious: In Hinduism, the leaves are especially sacred to Lord Shiva and are used in many rituals and pujas.
