The samples observed in this study were 71 plants with tree species varying from longan new crystal (Dimocarpus longan), red jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus), alligator avocado (Persea americana), and banyan tree (Ficus benjamina). The results showed that almost all of the samples belonged to the healthy class of the Tree Health Index, except for one sample which was found to have died.
