Mahanta da Frankly speaking I am not very much sure about the flowers. Actually I just noted down those which I remember reading in xadhukothas and seeing at our guwahati home garden. Akaxigonga as far as I remember is a ground plant very much like top of pinaple but around 1 to 2 m high from ground. And the reddish purpllish sweet smelling flower comes out from the centre on a long support (?). I think Beena and madhobilota are same-creeper with small light reddish flower. Kothal-sompa and I remember one more konok-sompa-these are big trees with yellow very sweet smelling flower. Gulonsi I think is frangipani-whitish yellowish flower. I am not sure about others. There is one more I remember-Hasna hana which blooms and spreads its fragnance late at night. May be somebody from assam can throw some light. Thanks and best wishes with the website venture. Regards
