Yes Usha di But I could not understand "Do these die with snow?" Incidently, this is one tree (normally a shrub but older ones become almost a tree) I know since I was in class 1 of school. In compound of our school, there was no grass left because of nearly 500-600 students playing in a small area of not more that 1 hectare or so. There were about 20 trees of this in the area we used to play in lower classes, and the tree is characteristic as ground was littered with fallen flowers and we would often pick them up and play as children. The tree being deciduous loses all its leaves in autumn when ground would be littered with leaves. The tree remaining leafless in winter till new leaves and then flowers appear in March-April. Did you mean that as die in snow?
