To me this not wild or otherwise OLIVE..... leaves definitely are not OLIVE like....
I still think its one of those acidic plums..used to be used for pies and making wine... a little goolgling gets one: **** 1) Prunus institia or Shropshire Prune Damson ..... likely.... *****2) prunus domestica ..... perhaps..... USHA di = PS WHEN I DONT HAVE A RULER OR SOMETHING HANDY TO COMPARE SIZE , I JUST USE MY FINGERS, PALM ETC OR A PEN ..INCLUDING THEM IN AT LEAST ONE PHOTO.. SOMETIMES I ASK PASSERS-BY... AS I RECENTLY DID, WHEN PHOTOGRAPHING KARAMCHA /CARISSA FRUITS FROM THE STREET , THE TREE WAS INSIDE RAMKRISHNA MISSION CAMPUS... A STUDENT WAS WALKING BY, AND SHE COMPLIED WITH MY REQUEST, SHE LENT ME HER FINGERS ..HOLDING THE BRANCH AND PROVIDING THE PICTURE A SIZE GUIDE... VOILA, A RULER... something like that would have helped in this case...... esp the fruit... ============================ On Jun 29, 11:56 am, Dinesh Valke <[email protected]> wrote: > ... this query re-posted > athttps://groups.google.com/d/topic/indiantreepix/AfuSsCryI5E/discussion > > Regards. > Dinesh > > On Tue, Jun 21, 2011 at 8:03 PM, Dinesh Valke <[email protected]>wrote: > > > ... looks very much like *Olea dioica* ... commonly known as *kadu jambhul > > * कडू जांबूळ / कड जांबूळ OR *par jambhul *¿ पार जांभूळ ? > > Please wait for comments. > > > Regards. > > Dinesh > > > On Tue, Jun 21, 2011 at 7:49 PM, Ushadi micromini < > > [email protected]> wrote: > > >> I am stumped... > >> but nothing... > >> not an expert... > >> could this be one of those very acidic plums... that were used by > >> romans to make wine? > > >> MY QUESTION: DIDN't the LOCALS tell you the name they use for it? > > >> that's usually a good starting point... > > >> Usha di > >> ==== > > >> On Jun 21, 3:29 pm, Satish Nikam <[email protected]> wrote: > >> > Dear All, > >> > Repeating my earlier request for ID.Pic taken in > >> Mulshi,Pune. > >> > The locals avoid eating the fruits. > >> > thanks > >> > regards > >> > satish nikam > > >> > IMG_5416-r.jpg > >> > 49KViewDownload > > >> > IMG_5417-r.jpg > >> > 55KViewDownload > > >> > IMG_5418-r.jpg > >> > 38KViewDownload > > >> > IMG_5419-r.jpg > >> > 61KViewDownload
