Many thanks Garg ji for resurfacing the query.
Thanks very much - Pankaj, Gurcharan ji and Lalithamba ji for the possible
meanings / etymology.
I will wait for some more time until we all zero in on the same meaning.
Thanks Pankaj for pointing to the book - Plant names and their meaning. If
someone has access to that book, they will be able to help with the meaning.

Regards.
Dinesh
