Surajit: well!! and gee gosh, never knew it would effect you .... very nice ... but I am no help in ID of the various trees called neem in India... I myself am confused about the classification and differential diagnosis . ANd the internet is of no help...readily... you would need Gurcharanji or Neil or Satish Phadke or Vijayashankar Raman to tell you about this tree ID...
The trees living in harmony, may be even interdependence ... I call thes etrees married trees, .. for lack of anything more appropriate... they live and sometimes die together.. but while alive they seem to support each other.. following hurricane Aila, KolBotG lost a couple of these married trees, they toppled over together ... (( this interdependece and living in harmony is quite different from the relationship of the strangler fig to its host... )) Thanks again usha di ========= On Fri, Apr 27, 2012 at 11:32 PM, surajit koley < [email protected]> wrote: > Madam, > > Your beautiful comment in the HARITAKI > post<https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#%21topic/indiantreepix/hVszXenvvL4>moved > me and i think this is the right time i share these photo with my > beloved friends here.
