Bimalda very nice its interesting that its growing by a roadside the fruits grow to be very big, (see below) I wonder what do these neighborhood folks do with the fruits or seeds?
we have several in the kolkata area one is famous one in victoria memorial grounds on the northeast corner lawn another in the large army garden enclave in the salt lake area another i think i saw in the horticulture garden and of course the shibpur botanical garden i have not yet seen it outside of a deliberate planting, at least in Calcutta the fully grown fruits get very big (the leaf here is from a nearby other tree) thats a size 8 shoe = 9.5 inches long in victoria memorial garden lawn i believe its a fruit from the year before the tree still only had buds for that current year usha di On Sat, Jun 23, 2018 at 9:11 PM, J.M.
