Thanks, Carmelita ji. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Carmelita" <> Date: 25-Dec-2017 6:28 PM Subject: Re: [efloraofindia:283342] Tree for ID : Platanus Species : Washington DC : 08DEC17 : AK-07 To: "J.M. Garg" <[email protected]> Cc:
J. M. Garg. Please, working only with the images offered which do not show some necessary details to make a proper identification, I see the fruit is single or double rather than in bunches (P occidentalis = single fruit; or two frutis (sometimes three) per stem P. racemosa = multiple fruits per stem); geographical location, P racemosa occurs in the western part of the US; P occidentalis in the eastern part). . A more likely possibility is the Platanus x acerifolia, common name London Plane, a hybrid which is commonly planted as a street tree in the eastern part of the US. Forgive me if this link is not acceptable. The District Department of Transportation (DDOT} Urban Forestry Administration (UFA) keeps track of street trees and has created a map. If the person who supplied the images kept a note of the address and/or the GPS location of this tree, one can zoom in on the map, click on the circles to see the identification of each tree. )http://dcgis.maps.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap =fea6079cf9bc4310a8b6c94f8c2bf1da Thank you, carmelita aka Mary <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Virus-free. www.avg.com <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <#m_5046735456790250529_m_-587463634594974129_DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> On Mon, Dec 25, 2017 at 5:58 AM, J.M.
