Greetings, I suspected when I smelled the fragrance, but wanted to refer book to confirm which was not handy, my impatience forced me to drop the pictures, sorry for the inconvenieces, if any
but very pleased to see the young tree of Couroupita guianensis (Cannon Ball Tree) as Mr Adittyaji said it is commonly called Kailasapati. On most saturdays from my Bus journey; I watch two tall & old trees fully loaded with flowers/balls and wanted to go near to them to feel them, really amazing to know that Kailasapati was regularly watching me, just kidding, I will try to inform the authority of that campus about the huge growth! Coz it is at the main gate of the building and the place is only enough for that of Bark seen in the picture. One Flame Tree in the front of it has been recently removed, I personally don't know but apparantly; to my knowledge; it was blocking the view of the said building & could be the reason of removing/cutting of flame tree. Millions of thanks to all of you and the group to help me experience this first flower of the tree I have been watching since December, 2008.
