Dinesh ji Tabish ji is right and so are you. Stipules can be clearly seen (not in Sambucus), as also free carpels and numerous stamens can be judged, although not in focus. Also you won't find woody Sambucus at those heights. Also Leea is a plant of mainly subtropical regions. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.

I have seen the same plant with both red, dark red and orange flowers. Secondly, I dont think they are pinkish, they are more red turning to orange may be.

Yes, gartenkresse is extensively used in german, in fact european kitchen. My mom used to give us Aliv-Khir, when we had uneasy stomach. It is supposed to eb a mild purgative. One can buy small paperboxes with small seedlings in supermarkets. One can also buy seeds, some ten grams for one Euro. Let me tell you one story. When my mom visited us she was surprised to see that we pay one euro (which is around 60 INR) for 10 gramm Aliv. Later when she went back, she sent one Kilo Aliv through my brother-in-law, who was visiting Hannover Fair. He was supposed to visit us, but did not manage it. He did not have time to go to the postoffice to sent the package to me. He tried to give it to his german colleagues, but everyone politely denied to accept it, as noone knew, what to do with the seeds. He could not throw it away and took it back to India.

My mom used to give us Aliv-Khir, when we had uneasy stomach. It is supposed to eb a mild purgative. One can buy small paperboxes with small seedlings in supermarkets. One can also buy seeds, some ten grams for one Euro. Let me tell you one story. When my mom visited us she was surprised to see that we pay one euro (which is around 60 INR) for 10 gramm Aliv. Later when she went back, she sent one Kilo Aliv through my brother-in-law, who was visiting Hannover Fair. He was supposed to visit us, but did not manage it. He did not have time to go to the postoffice to sent the package to me. He tried to give it to his german colleagues, but everyone politely denied to accept it, as noone knew, what to do with the seeds. He could not throw it away and took it back to India.

I'm a real novice with flora and finding this task difficult. I'm using 'Forest Flora of Hyderabad' by Md. Sharfuddin Khan; have made a list of some using this book with the help of vernacular names, but finding difficulty with many species. I thought the best way is to click pictures and take help of the experienced people on indiantreepix. Attaching a series of pictures of a tree that is quite common in my farm; not gregarious and have this species widely scattered all over; some are big and some are small. Will appreciate your help in identifying this species. Thanks.
