Dear Neil, Thanks for the id confirmation. I also assumed the same from the online pictures, but being first time introduction to the tree, wanted some seasoned pair of eyes to confirm.
Alco, can you and/or other members please provide more info on Madhuca longifolia var longifolia's growth habit? How is its canopy (medium like 10-15 ft or very wide like 50ft), what kind of roots (lot of surface roots or deep roots, how about buttresses), fast or slow growing, branching habit. thanks Satish On Fri, Nov 16, 2012 at 1:14 PM, Neil Soares <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > Affirmative.
