** Hi Chandra, There was a book published during the centenary celebrations of Lalbagh ( http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lalbagh-Botanical-Gardens-Bangalore-India/dp/B0018WQ2J2 ) which had detailed maps of all the gardens within Lalbagh and the locations of every tree within the garden. This book is no longer available in the Marigowda Library, nor in the Central Library in Cubbon Park. I have had only a very quick look through a copy that belonged to someone. As far as I am concerned, it is worth its weight in gold!
