Dear Vijay. I think I have seen lenticels in both as far as I can remember. We had both in oru campus, back at home in WII !! The leaf surface and petiole is puberulent in sinensis. That cant be seen in such low resolution pics. I am not saying that this pic is not cordifolia. I am just sayingthat its not easy to make out from this pic. Pankaj
