Puṇṇavaḍḍhana

1. Puṇṇavaḍḍhana.– Son of Migāra and husband of Visākhā (q.v.) AA.i.220; DhA.i.387; UdA. 158, etc.

2. Puṇṇavaḍḍhana.– One of the gardens laid out by Parakkamabāhu I in Pulatthipura (Cv.lxxix. 9). In it was a reservoir, which was connected with the Toyavāpī by the Sarassatī Canal. From this branched off, to the west, the Yamunā Canal. Ibid., 46, 47.

3. Puṇṇavaḍḍhana.– The name given to a kind of precious garment. Kuṇḍalī of Dvāramaṇḍala sent several of these garments to Dīghābhaya through Sūranimila, and Dīghābhaya gave a pair himself to Sūranimila. Mhv.xxiii.33, 37; MT. 450.

Puṇṇa was probably another variation of the name. e.g., ibid., 538.
