Dear Ushadi ji, Many thanks for the useful suggestions. You know something my friend, am a very careless person. It is my fault that I assumed that others would accept that it is Allspice. Thank you for correcting me. The fruits are yet to come. The plant is just flowering and I thought of sharing it. Again, I did not mention the size of the flowers, another mistake. Definitely an embarrassing situation for Ajinkya ji. I owe him an apology. You are however assuming that I have asked for identity. I do not see it in my mail. I have erred my friend and apologize to all the botanist for having created confusion. I owe you one more thing my friend. I owe you "A Thank you" for having corrected me. With a few more such friends, I will be slightly better, though nowhere near the qualified Botanists. Regards. Yazdy.
