Hi Divakar, Thanks but don't think they are thorns. As a tree grows larger spines tend to decrease not increase. The climber is Butea parviflora [Palas-vel]. Regards, Neil Soares.

Please have a close observation of 2nd and 3rd photogrphs. I would like to know the plant (climber?) with trilobed leaves and hanging inflorescence seen in first photograph. Is it Pureria? I never saw the flowers. Thanking you -Divakar Mesta On Aug 4, 10:07 pm, Neil Soares <drneilsoa...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Hi, > Have many Asana trees [both Bridelia spinosa & Bridelia squamosa] trees on > my property.
