Hi Shiva, This is the photo of Neolamarkia cadamba, a non smelling flower. I have seen a lot of these trees in g. noida, mostly smallish ones, probably as they have been planted anew. The flowers are a darker shade of brown, and do not smell at all. While Mitragyna parviflora flowers (the photos i had posted at the start of the thread) smell profusely. The latter is known as krishna kadamba or kaim.
