 A very shady tree. and quite broad though not very tall. gives out root from the top which goes into the ground and multiplies the tree. so, the tree gets spread over quite an area on the ground.

 Isn't the Buddha supposed to be hanging out amid the roots?

 chelydra: i found this - his tree is also sacred to the Buddhists. After attaining enlightenment, the Buddha is believed to have sat under a banyan tree for seven days, absorbed in his newfound realisation. Also interesting article - http://www.newsweek.
