Dear Tanay,
I live in Gangtok and work in the Forest Dept.
Your picture shows a stand of trees planted by our department in what
is a remnant of our Pinetum, much of which is now the VIP Colony and
Circuit House.
The majority species are Cryptomeria japonica, Cupressus funebris and
Pinus patula.
Dear Shantanu,
All are Cryptomeria japonica planted by our department.
