I would request people to give a little more thought to this.
According to my references,
1. E. basaal has flowers in racemes (not panicles), which are supposed
to be 3 times shorter than the leaves
2. E. robusta too has flowers in racemes much shorter than the leaf
3. E. ribes has flowers in much-branched panicles, which are longer
than the leaves. Also, the panicles are at the end of branches.
In Prashant's first picture, I can clearly see a branched panicle.
In Neil's pictures, flower clusters appear to be much smaller than the
leaves, and many of them are not at the end of branches.
For lack of further evidence, I would tend to think that Prashant's
plant could be E. ribes. A scandent shrub can sometimes look like a
small tree.
