Great! Thanks Raju ji for sharing it. In the photo where those shoot like things are comming out I first thought that they are pnumatophores of mangroves. I doubt that in nature I would have dreamt it to be a plant. Thanks for showing an entirely diff plant. Madhuri Sent from BlackBerry® on Airtel

I have collected this species during my field survey at Assam. The habitat was semi evergreen, and the collection site is a perennial river bank with sand and pebbles. Very interesting to note that, I have seen this sp only from a single location and some mammals are seen to feed on this. I have photographed the phenophases of this species. The flowering was seen (Pic 1&2) during March-April and fruit (pic 5&6)during September- October.
