Just wanted to add one info. Many believe that the plant is originated
in India as stated by Linnaeus too. But the plant is supposed to be
originally from Tamarind Island. This generic and specific epithet is
one of the few unique ones as both genus and species are based on name
of a place. There are very few such examples other than this, like,
India arunachalensis an Orchid.

Nice pics BTW.
