Gargji: Ranjini's pictures are from Lalbagh, Bangalore I guess... I have seen them in Jamaica.. is native of the islands, grows very v v v.............ery slowly... hardest of the woods, sinks in water, one of the two or three woods that I have seen that sink... has a terpenoid resin and oil that's good for the distal lung's functioning ... and gets beautiful fruits and red seeds.. saw them at Miami and in a Costa rican collection... Kolkata was supposed to have had a couple but cant find them now... does not die so easily, so must mean some greedy guy got to them... highly prized in serious Herbal Medicine ....
