Hi Surajit, Haldu flowers do have a scent, but they are not as aromatic as those of Kalamb. Regards, Neil Soares.

So, i waited for the flowers. More so because at that time i also received a personal mail suggesting the id as Mitragyna. At the time of my 2nd post (https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/indiantreepix/JDJBPh4R4mU) I noticed several of your uploads of Mitragyna in many posts, including in threads of other members. That is why i was more confused. Finally, in my 3rd post i concluded, after finding these illustrations - http://www.plantillustrations.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=45005 http://www.plantillustrations.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=61263 http://plantgenera.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=61264 http://plantgenera.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=150616 http://plantgenera.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=162159 I found that these flowers are nicely scented. Can you please tell me if Haldina cordifolia flowers are also scented? Thank you very much.

Have plenty of trees of both Haldu and Kalamb [Mitragyna parviflora] in my forest at Shahapur and my photographs of both are available in the archives of this group. Here is one such link : https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups#!searchin/indiantreepix/Mitragyna$20parviflora$20Neil$20Soares%7Csort:relevance/indiantreepix/xoPuAOnkI90/7HF3vY4PrtQJ With regards, Neil Soares. --- On Sun, 5/5/13, J.M.

In view I shall be taking it as Mitragyna parvifolia unless l there is a feedback to the contrary.
