Hello Thank you so much Dr. Pankaj for your good wishes. People prefer Quercus to Deodar because Quercus yields fodder and has better survival and adaptibility. Whereas Deodar cannot be used as fodder. It is also a slow grower. The population of Deodar is on a decline as the environment effects these plants. I had a discussion with people in HP and they told me that Deodar no longer attains the girth they used to 20 yrs ago.
As for variation in colour so i dont think there is any. As far as my pics are concerned, the colour might seem different but it is purely light effect and nothing else.
