Yazdy ji Thanks for making so many effrts to get correct name of the plant. People like you are strength and real assets for the group, being such keen observers although not being botanists. I also read leaves bluish-white on the underside in my book "Indian trees" but word bluish-white made me unsure. Any how I am happy that you got the name finally. Enjoy your estate and its plants. Wish we get some occasion to visit vast estates of yours and that of Neil ji.
