Dear Rashida, This is not Nerium, but Thevetia neriifolia (Marathi name: Bitti). The name of the species suggests that its leaves are similar to those of Nerium!!
See Nerium oleander for comparison here.. http://groups.google.co.in/group/indiantreepix/browse_thread/thread/452732f3b346d143/8b441e26ef2b9f8c?lnk=gst&q=nerium+oleander#8b441e26ef2b9f8c Cheers, Swapna On Sat, Aug 22, 2009 at 6:14 PM, rashida atthar <[email protected]>wrote: > > I saw the flowering and fruiting of the white Nerium Oleander syn Nerium > indicum locally called Kaner at Rani Baug, Mumbai on 18 August 09. > > regards, > Rashida. > > > > > > > ------------------------------ > Are you an untamed, bizarre or daring explorer?
