Surajit not finding much or any info about plants in india in this century or recently is one reason why Dinesh Gargji Satish Phadke et al and some others may be even Neil Soare joined together to start this google group... I think there is a thread or two somewhere about the history of this group, may be DInesh or Satish phadke remembers and can track it..
for many years before that on the net there were pictures by JM Garg if I searche d for anything related to trees etc in Kolkata or india at the wiki... all those pictures were from OWN WORK JM GARG... so imaginre my delight when I discovered this group made by JM Garg.ad Also with the same objective Tabish and Thingam started the flowers of India site hence the presence though growing and large now yet in its infancy and the professors and folks at BSI and all those botanical gardens in India sit on a treasure trove yet do not write up show pics etc on the net... continuing the paucity, making it more pronounced... Hence we treasure people like Balkar Nidhgan Dr Sabu Ritesh Pankaj and Gurcharanji who are in the academics studying/teaching botany and yet give this site so much of their time... usha di On Sun, Mar 29, 2015 at 11:00 AM, surajit koley < [email protected]> wrote: > Didi, > I agree with you.
