Dear Sandeep,
Please see 1196 a, b, c d e . In place of 1196e by mistake you have added

Similarly in place of 1296e you have added 1295e. Trend is continued up to
lower sets. For example in place of 896e you have added 895e.
Please check and correct. It was my fault as I have not checke

Hi,
The identity of this plant is now more or less confirmed. It is
Vangueria edulis, native to Madagaskar and planted in gardens in Madras
presidency (Gamble). Its supposed to have large edible fruits like V.
spinosa.
