very interesting history i remember reading about Devika Rani during the last one year in context of educated upper crust ladies who became involved in cinema. People mistake her for a run of the mill actress of those days, far from it, she was a daughter of a well to do family , well educated , including in europe and ultimately heading a studio she had co founded, then this career move to become an agriculturist . Kudos to her.
And thanks for remembering her and telling us about her, Tapasda. secondly a very interesting leaf.. the petiole of this compound lead is winged ... nicely shown here thanks tsp usha di On Wed, Nov 18, 2015 at 7:29 PM, tsp kumar <[email protected]> wrote: > Tapasji, > > To add.....I am not aware of its cultivation in or around Tumkur barring a > lone tree in Devarayanadurga forest near by, obviously planted..Tumkur as > about 70 kms north of Bangalore. > > On Wed, Nov 18, 2015 at 3:24 PM, Tapas Chakrabarty <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> There is record that Bursera delpechiana is cultivated in Tumkur for >> its fragrant essential oil and having whitish flowers (*Bursera >> delpechiana* Poiss. ex Engler in DC.m Monogr.
