Dinesh ji I hope you have not misunderstood me I am not doubting your ID at all. Just checking and trying tomatch for the characters for my own study which may be useful to others. At the same time the thoughts remain on server to retrieve fast when similar plant is spotted. Anyway thanks for the picture of the pod. I will understand the difference correctly only when I would see the joints of pods folded in calyx in Smithia. Here it is clear that nothing is folded.
