Excellent Photos Pravir ji. Kigelia africana in Seoni and Balaghat district of M.P. is called "Garud Tree". As the story goes... some snke chrmers with their snakes in the basket stayed one night under this tree in the nearby village. Next morning to their surprise they found all snakes were dead. So villagers named this tree as "Garud tree" (after the name of the Eagle which kills snakes). Villagers believe that if any snake comes under the tree it would die. Any such reports......from your side??? Satish
