---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ramjee Nagarajan (Personal) <[email protected]> Date: 8 July 2014 16:08 Subject: [efloraofindia:193295] Thorns in Acacia catechu To: [email protected] Dear Friends, வணக்கம் *(Vanakkam!) *Greetings from Ahmedabad, Gujarat! I was trying to do a small write-up on Acacia catechu. While some good sources of reference (including Flowers of India: http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Cutch%20Tree.html) say that they have a PAIR of thorns at the base of each leaf. As a kid, have often used it as a toothbrush, and if my memory serves me right they have only one at the base. If anyone with access to any specimen near you can confirm would be extremely grateful! Thank you. With kind regards, ramjee *><((((º> .·´¯`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸ ><((((º> ,.·´¯`·.¸.·´¯`·.¸ ><((((º> * N.
