In 1983 Mr Kharto ( Tibetan instructor ) wanted to know about the tree known as CHAMPA to the BHUDDHISTS .I could not enlighten him as to me CHAMA was Michelia champaca.It was in Udhampur(1998),I opened a dry pod of Oroxylum indicum and saw the papery seeds inside I understood what CHAMPA means to a BUDDHIST.My friend Sonam told me that Bhuddhist use the pods and the seeds in worship of Buddha.This tree is very common at this place.It is known as Ullu in Hindi and Sona in Bangla. This is what S venkatesh tells about the tree, The tree is conspicuous in the forest when it bears its scabbard-like fruits which breaks open to release its flat,papery and winged seeds.
