Dear Shushrut ji,
1. Your plot of 600 Sq Feet will be overwhemed by Naglingam. Instead you can go
in for medium size trees like Golden or White Champa, Kanchan (Bauhinea
blackeana).
If you are looking for colour go for Cassia nodosa, Cassia javanica (both
rosy pink) or Cassia fistula (Bahava / Amaltas) - yellow flowers or Golden
Tabebuia or Milletia penguensis - mauve.
Never try to grow from seeds - survival is less and endlessly long to grow.
Instead buy a grafted variety which will grow faster and give you blooms in a
year.
Space between each big tree should be 8 feet. In between you can add a
flowering shrub or seasonals like zenia, marigold, sunflower, etc.
Often people do mistake of planting trees saplings too close because space
looks empty at the time of planting. But in a year or two it will look
overcrowded and affect growth of trees.
2. Creepers - You have a good 20 feet long wall. You can plant a combination
of creepers spaced 5 - 7 feet apart. You can go for Pyrostegia venusta which
will completely cover your wall
as well as bloom (Orange) copiously. Clemantis (Raan chameli) needs
climbing support but has white fragrant blooms. Rangoon Creeper (Madhu malati)
is easy to grow and
fragrant too. Red Passion flower (Passiflora) will add beauty as its
flowers are bright red in colour.
CHECK NAFEES NURSERY in Lucknow District.

Subject: [efloraofindia:248186] Suggestions for fast growing flowering
creepers and unusual fragrant flowering trees.
Hello fellow tree lovers,
1.. I have a house in Lucknow which has a bare wall of almost 20 feet
length and 40 feet height. Could anyone suggest fast growing perrenial
flowering creepers. Bougainvillea, Honeysuckle, mornig glory are fine, but I
wonder if anyone has suggestion for something a bit more unusual, and alos,
which nurseries stock them. I can get them from nurseries in Delh also, so
please do suggest them.
2.. There is allo a large patch of land, about 600 sq feet where I plan to
plant trees. I am looking for flowering fragrant trees, does not matter if they
take 5 years from planting to bloom. Again, something that one doesn't see
everywhere. I was especially enamored by Naglingam(Couroupita guianensis), so
if anyone could tell mewhere I can procure those seeds in Delhi would be great.
Also, suggestions for other flowering trees and where one can find them in
Lucknow or Delhi.
Thanking everyone for taking the patience of reading this. I promise to post
pictures of the planted trees in full bloom whenever that is. :)
