We are planting some trees in our colony and I procured about 30 odd saplings from the Forest Nursery. However, one of the local nursery guy mentioned that the Champaca saplings grown from seed (which is what most Forest nursery folks do) take a long time to flower (~10yrs) and that is the reason the grafted ones are sold in the local nurseries. Is this true? How tall/fast will a champaca sapling grow and how long for it to flower?
