The geographical location of the state of Jammu and Kashmir supports a rich floral diversity including tree diversity. The timber requirements are met by various species of trees including both the Gymnosperms and Angiosperms. A timber yielding tree attains maturity in hundreds of years but their rapid loss for one reason or the other cannot maintain a balance in nature. As such it adversely affects the forests and thus results in the fragile nature of ecology. All the species mentioned and described in the study are found in wild state. A total of 42 species of trees belonging to 23 families of Gymnosperms and Angiosperms have been enlisted and described. However, some species are also cultivated both by villagers and government agencies. This practice coupled with a shift to substitute the use of traditional wood to the popular synthetic materials may also change the ecological scenario in the state.
