Panchgani can be referred to as a town governed by municipal council, and located in district of Satara in ‘Maharashtra, India’. This place had been discovered by British rulers at the time of British Raj in the form of one of the summer resorts. Moreover, in 1860s, John Chesson, a superintendent was placed ‘in-charge’ of this hill-station. The credit for existence of western species such as poinsettia and silver oak goes to him.
