yes,of course it is cochlospermum. but i suspect that there are two species or at least a variation is present in the area where i visit regularly. if you have flora of java, by backer, check cochlospermum. there two species mentioned. the descriptions both start with ovary. one says ovary glabrous, the other says ovary pubescent. i have a friend who runs a nursery as professsion. but he raises local trees also and he confirms that the area where he collects cochlospermum seeds, there are two kinds of fruits and they are on different trees. he has the same suspicion as mine. i dont know where you stay. if you do come to pune, we can visit. of course, this should happen before 20 april, as i will then be away for four months. regards, gokhale gokhale On Wed, Mar 18, 2015 at 10:03 PM, Dharma S <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks shri Achyut > > That's interesting.
