Dear Satish Phadke, G. tiliifolia is a larger tree with smaller leaves compared to G. asiatica. Your second set of pictures show G. asiatica twig because the stipules are linear-lanceolate, they are not leafy and auricled. Perhaps pics of G. tiliifolia stipules will sort the issue. Regards, Shrikant
