Dear Devendra, I am little bit confused with its id, are you sure it is Acacia chundra and not Acacia catechu. In the year 1994, when I was DFO Narvada Velly Development Authority, we use to plant these two species. I think the new shoots (branchlets) in Acacia chundra is is always dark brown or red, that's why it is called Lal Khair (red khair). Thanks Nayan. ..................................N.S.Dungriyal IFS Chief Conservator of Forests and Field Director Satpura Tiger Reserve Hoshangabad M.P. 09424792100
