Middle Canopy:

Streblus asper (Paruvamaram), Crateva religiosa ( Neermathalam Ma vulangam), Azadirachta indica (Ariyaveppu, Veppu), Morinda tinctoria (Cherumanjanathi, manjanathi) Santalum album (Chandanam), Dendrocalamus strictus (cheria molla, Kalmula, Kalmolla, Karinkana), and Bambusa arundinaceae (Venu, Mulla, illi, Kampa) grows along moist patches.

Under Growth:

Pterolobium indicum (Karindu), a thorny shrub, Lantana camera (Puchedi), Helicteres isora (valamburi).

Ground Vegetation:

Obnoxious weeds such as Eupatorium riparium, Ageratum conyzoides, Parthenium hyterophorus, Anaphalis sp., Justicia sp. and variety of palatable and coarse grasses are also found in the forests.

Climbers:

Acacia intsia (Incha), Abrus precatorius (Atimadhuram, Guja, Kakani, chekkunni), Mucuna pruriens (Corivalli, coriyanam), Pterolobium indicum (Karindu), Dioscorea oppositifolia (Kunji), Dioscorea wallichii and Dioscorea bulbifera (Kattukachali) also occur occasionally in these forests.

Natural regeneration:

Few species such as rose wood, Terminalias, Anogeissus and Tamarind are naturally regenerating satisfactorily. However natural regeneration has suffered due to fires and wild animal damage, Fires were controlled effectively during 1984 to 1987. Now it is to be seen whether above mentioned species attain pole stage or not.
