In the full Narada Purana (Purva Bhaga) this is chapter 55, verse 39.
Trees with hard heartwood come from the Sun. Poor ones come from Saturn. Milky ones come from the Moon. Thorny ones come from Mars. Jupiter and Mercury give trees with fruit and without fruit.
Simple meaning: Each planet shows what kind of tree: the Sun hard wood, the Moon milky, Mars thorny.
पुष्पिता भार्गवे स्निग्धाश्चंद्रेऽथ कटुकाः कुजे ।
Venus gives flowering trees. The Moon gives oily ones and Mars bitter ones.
कुर्याद्विलोमगो वापि स्वांशोक्तपरगैः समम् ।
Mars and the Moon cause the monthly cycle in women.
नेष्टस्थेज्येऽन्यथास्ते स्त्रीयुंक्तासन्नरेक्षिते ।
Bad planets with the 7th bring union in anger. Good planets bring union in love.
