Watch for the fruits and take photographs. The tree is commonly called beggar's bowl tree, as the big sized fruits were dried and the outer hard shell was used for alms ( as beggar's bowl). I will upload the photographs of fruits hanging from the trunk, after searching from my archives. Beautiful specimens are seen in the Chennai Agri- horticulture society.
