Dear Raghu Ji, Thank you for the information as well as for sending me those links. Oh! yes they do grow to very great heights, we have a couple of them at our place. Some of them with large cavities that harbour flying squirrels. The fruits really attract a lot of animals including our cows. Quite often where people cultivate ginger and use cattle manure find that plenty of these seeds sprout. The seeds have passed through the guts of these animals and come out fortified. Besides these we quite often find the fruit being eaten by the malabar squirrels hanging with their head down and holding the nuts in their front paws chewing away to glory. Regards Yazdy.
