banyan

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'tree' is the definition.
(banyan tree is a kind of tree)

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for banyan that I've seen before include "Crush underfoot" , "Indian fig tree with self-rooting branches" , "Multi-trunked Indian tree" , "Fig tree with aerial roots" , "Any ban for an Indian tree" .)
