Can you send a better picture showing foliage etc.of Saraca species
for identification. It is quite possible that it could be
S.thaipingensis, which is also cultivated in many places like
Bangalore.

I don't think the nodding flowers are unique to S. nigrum. Most specimens S.
americanum from authentic sources show nodding flowers and fruits. I have
no reason to doubt these and eFlora of China and Taiwan. Above all S.
americanum is commonly known as glossy nightshade because of shining
fruits.
My issue here is, I see all the flowers as nodding, which is one of
the main characters for Solanum nigrum alongwith other features as
described in above two mails.
Plz Note: In one of the above mails I have wrongly labelled one of the
image as Protologue of Solanum indicum, it is actually Solanum
I will try to differentiate between Solanum nigrum and Solanum
americanum in next few posts. Please bear with me.

Not Ixeris. Could it be Taraxacum only, as I can't see any cauline leaves.

I had four saplings with me, but I planted all in a nearby garden. I

Yazdy ji, nice capture of the Giant Malabar squirrel. We call it Shekru in
Marathi and it is highly endangered species. They are the largest tree
squirrels in the world and it is as big as a house cat.
Thanks for sharing.
