Salam ( Syzygium polyanthum ) is a plant species in the Myrtaceae family. It is a medium-sized tree that can reach a height of 30 meters, with a trunk diameter of up to 60 cm; the bark is brownish-gray, fissured, and scaly. The leaves are simple and arranged in opposite pairs, with petioles measuring 12 mm. The leaf blades are oblong, narrowly elliptic, or lanceolate, ranging from 5–16 cm in length and 2.5–7 cm in width; they are glabrous (smooth/hairless) and feature 6–11 pairs of secondary veins. S. polyanthum produces inflorescences in the form of panicles containing numerous flower buds, spanning 2–8 cm; these emerge below the leaves or, occasionally, from the leaf axils. The flowers are small, fragrant, and tetramerous (having parts in multiples of four). The calyx is cup-shaped and approximately 4 mm long, while the petals are distinct (free), white, and measure 2.5–3.5 mm. There are numerous stamens, each about 3 mm long, arranged in four clusters; they are deciduous (fall off...

Celery ( Apium graveolens ) is a plant species in the Apiaceae family. It is a small herb, typically less than 1 meter in height, with fleshy leaves on short stalks; in certain cultivated varieties, the root enlarges to form a bulb. The flowers are arranged in compound clusters, and the fruits are small and dark brown in color. The leaves, flowers, fruits, and bulbs are all used as vegetables. A. graveolens does not tolerate heavy rainfall well. Its cultivation requires loose soil rich in organic matter, with a pH level between 5.5 and 6.5. This plant can be harvested multiple times. The first harvest can take place 1–3 months after planting. Subsequent harvests are carried out by repeatedly cutting the base of the stems every 1–2 weeks. The harvesting period concludes when the shoots are no longer productive.

Binjai ( Mangifera caesia ) is a plant species belonging to the Anacardiaceae family. It is a large tree with a dense canopy and a straight trunk, reaching a height of 30–45 meters with a trunk diameter of 50–80 cm. The bark is grayish-brown and fissured. All parts of the tree exude a sharp, whitish sap that causes skin irritation; upon exposure to air, this sap solidifies and turns black. M. caesia features simple, alternately arranged leaves that often cluster near the tips of the branches. The leaf blades are elliptic to lanceolate—sometimes slightly obovate—measuring 7–12 cm in length and 3–5.5 cm in width. They are stiff, glossy green on the upper surface, pale green on the underside, and possess a prominent midrib. The leaf base is decurrent (tapering along the petiole), while the apex is blunt or bluntly pointed. The petioles are stiff, flattened, and 1–2.5 cm long. The inflorescence consists of a panicle located at the end of a branch, reaching 15–40 cm in length; it is highl...
