Dear Friends The next Tree Appreciation Walk is on20th October 2019 at Turzon,Charkop.
Turzon is a unique place-where tropical forest meets mangrove forest and jungle becomes mangal. One side there is a hillock full of tropical forest trees while the other side is a mangrove forest. In-between lies the water body full of Lotus! During monsoon wild flowers come up & then grasses. Last time we had concentrated on mangroves of Turzon. Now it will be wild flowers. Luffa aegyptica is in full glory with male & female flowers and fruits of all sizes. Two types of Corchorus is seen …our back bone of jute industry. We will also discuss pollination in Ficus hispida[Kala Umbar] which like Ficus carica[anjeer] is dioceous,where husband/wife live separately!How does the designer wasp of Kala Umbar,who came into existence 75 million years ago…manages this!
