Mahabharata also discusses Pure Botany and Applied Botany too (1). Neel Mani states that Vedavyasa the creator of Mahabharata discusses various aspects of environment and ecology (1).
  There are discussions about plant genesis .
      In Mahabharata, the plan kingdom is called Seventh Creation (Saptama Shrishthi) (1).
  Shrimad Bhagwat Geeta describes plants as Roma or Hair of the earth. (2)
   There is an interesting story about birth of plants. The story tells that Plants are Tamsi parts of Sperm of Brahma (Tamstamsa) (3)
 A shloka of Mahabharata describes plants and plant parts through symbols that the Agni (fire) is bodies of plants, the vagina of creeping plants or grass is earth.
   Mahabharata creators definitely were aware that there is life in plants, trees and there are various descriptions about growth, death, pain or disturbing aspects of growth  of  plants .Those aspects will be discussed in coming chapters.

    By the time, Mahabharata was created (orally) and edited in Gupta period, people started classifying the plant kingdom and there is proof in Mahabharata (Anushashana Parva, 96.11) wherein, there is discussion on Plant classification and importance of plants.
    Mahabharata is not biology book but a Purana (history mixed with magical power) . However, Mahabharata discuss plant science, plants and their importance in many chapters.
    The 13th Anushashana book (Parva), chapter 96, sub chapter or part 11 of Mahabharata discusses the classification of plants and importance of plant kingdom.(1)
Bhishma says to King Yudhisthira that water is crucial and important .People gets poise results of donating water. Therefore, people should dig pond.
    Bhishma says to Yudhisthira that there are eternal benefits by  growing trees, plants. Bhishma further explains plant classification as
Trees (Vriksha) as Mango, Jackfruit
Shrub (Gulma)  as Coral Tree
Creepers (Lata ) as Malti etc
Cord type (Valli) as Asian bayberry
Bamboo (Twakasar) –Bamboo and Supri etc
Grass (Trina) – Those grow in farm
 Bhishma tells to Yudhishthira that by growing trees/plants, the individual gets fame in this earth and gets heaven after death. For childless, the plants are his children. The trees/plants offer flowers to deities, fruits to ancestors, shadow to guests  as tribute. (1)
The Kinner, Nag, rakshasa, Deva, Gandharva , Rishigan Manushy all take shelter under trees or depend on trees/plants.  The flowers of plants  and plants with fruits satisfy the human beings. Those are interested in social causes, should grow trees at pond banks. The individuals should grow trees at pond banks and should protect them as children. Plants are Dharamputra or Godson for humans. (1)
Till date, the basic plant classification system , importance of plants and benefits of growing plants remain same.
