तासां स्थावराश्चतुर्विधाः- वनस्पतयो, वृक्षा, वीरुध, ओषधय इति | तासु, अपुष्पाः फलवन्तो वनस्पतयः, पुष्पफलवन्तो वृक्षाः, प्रतानवत्यः स्तम्बिन्यश्च वीरुधः, फलपाकनिष्ठा ओषधय इति ||२९||

sanskrit

The immobile Oshadhis in their turn, admit of being grouped under four sub-heads such as, the Vanaspatis, the Vrikshas, the Virudhas and the Oshadhis proper. Those trees which bear fruit without blossoming are called the Vanaspatis such as, the Plaksha and the Oudumvura. Those that bear both fruits and flowers are called the Vrikshas. Shrubs and creepers that trail on the ground are called Virudhas, whereas those plants which die with the ripening of their fruits, are called Oshadhis proper (such as cereals)
