In the full Narada Purana (Purva Bhaga) this is chapter 56, verse 208.
From Mitra's star comes the bakula. The Vishti tree comes from Indra's star. The sarja tree is from Mula. The vanjula is from the water star.
Simple meaning: Anuradha has the bakula, Jyeshtha the vishti, Mula the sarja and Purvashadha the vanjula.
पनसो वैश्वभाज्जातश्चार्कवृक्षश्च विष्णुभात् ।
Each star has its own tree: jackfruit, madar, shami and kadamba for four stars.
अजाहेश्चूतवृक्षोभूद्बुध्न्यजः पिचुमन्दकः ।
Mango, neem and mahua belong to three more stars.
यस्मिञ्छनैश्चरो धिष्ण्ये तद्वृक्षोऽर्च्यः प्रयत्नतः ।
Honour the tree of the star where Saturn stands. A list of yoga lords begins.
