Hi Hemant, There are 5 species of Butea commonly seen: 1.B.monosperma [B.frondosa]- an erect tree 2.B.monosperma var.lutea [B.frondosa var.lutea]- similar but with yellow flowers. 3.B.parviflora- a large climber. 4.B.purpurea- a lofty climber. & 5.B. superba- a gigantic climber. At my farm have B.monosperma and B.parviflora. Have previously made a request for seeds of B.monosperma var.lutea. Regards, Neil Soares. --- On Fri, 2/6/09, Hemanth <[email protected]> wrote:

Butea Monosperma, Butea Frondosa, Butea purpurea, Butea superb, and Butea parviflora Butea monosperma is the palash, Butea frondosa is the yellowish looking variety, Butea superba is many a times considered to be synonym of B. monosperma while many explorers say they both are different. Butea Purpurea is a climber if I remember right. While B. parviflora may be the whitish one. Please cross check I am just remembering something that I referred 3 years ago.

Have not heard of a white flower variety [? Butea monosperma var.alba].
