Artificial banyan trees are mainly made from various materials such as glass fiber reinforced plastic, cement, and more. The materials used vary depending on the size and style of the banyan tree and the location it is intended for. Due to the inherent characteristics of the banyan tree, there's an ancient saying, "Banyan doesn't grow beyond Ji'an," meaning that banyan trees are a southern species and are not found north of Ji'an, which is a geographical limitation. The use of artificial banyan trees has somewhat broken this restriction, allowing this beautiful and captivating species to be used in parks, green spaces, and tropical-themed clubs or attractions in the north.
