Dear all, Thanks for all the information.
Usha di, I wish I could take more pictures over a period of time. The picture was taken very casually during a visit to Pune...at a friend's home garden. It may not always be possible to study such plants for a long period. We can only study plants and trees from our own garden or a place which we visit often. Most of my pictures are taken casually or while travelling making it impossible to study a particular plant in detail. Since I will be away for a while, may not be possible to reply later.
