Thanks Gurucharan ji. Thats what I thought also. I read somewhere that variegata also can have 3 stamens. But the bark has knobs and blackish compared to purpurea which is more ash in color. I am never confident about saying that its a variegata in all the trees I have seen in my walking domain. The moment I look at the bud, I see that its purpurea Raman

And we had discussed this earlier in our group .. Here is a humble suggestion..!! Why can't we take an initiate in this matter?? I think, atleast we can make a catalogue of books and journals with each of us. So that our members can make use of that. Especially those people revising a genus or family would be finding difficulties to collect details from regional or local floras (including state and district floras). Each member can put a list of their accessible material. Am not sure how many of the members are generous enough to share their collections.. Still we can contribute much.. I am ready to contribute whatever I have.. awaiting response..!! As Balkarji said, we don't need to upload the paper or any kind of literature to the group, so that we can avoid the violation of copy right laws. Also the form of the literature is also a matter of concern. If it is a hard copy, the beneficiary should take the necessary expenses.

[efloraindia:97946] Fabaceae-Caesalpinioideae (Caesalpiniaceae) Week: Query about Senna sophera var. purpurea
Dear friends Looking for Senna sophera var. purpurea I finally found the description of Cassia purpurea (on which combination under Senna is formed) in eFlora of Pakistan, but somehow feel that plant described there is different. It describes plant with 3-5 pairsof leaflets as against 4-11 in C. sophera, http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5taxon_id=250063492 whereas this aspect is not mentioned in flora of British India. The illustration of eFlora of Pakistan shows 4 pairs of leaflets. It also lists fruit length as 5-7.5 cm as against 9-10 cm in C. sophera. I doubt got further confirmed when I saw this illustration of C. purpurea clearly showing 7-8 pairs of leaflets. http://www.plantgenera.org/illustration_100.php?id_publication=341id_illustration=99150language=height=700nsbpHEIGHT= Can any member knowing this plant clear this confusion -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.

In Tuman district on the north coast of Peru, thousands of pits were made in the degraded area. Crates of tree-saplings were kept ready near the pits. The event was flagged off at 10.15 am on June 5, 2010 and 8,000 participants took up the race of tree-planting simultaneously. The spirited teams broke the previous record of planting 26,422 trees in an hour set up by Ireland in 2009. Peruvians finished with 27,166 trees and in just 5 minutes and 20 seconds. Interestingly other previous records were in Mexico (242 trees/min.) in 2008 and in India (176 trees/min.) in 2005. This is how people of Peru triumphed against the global climate change, what an effort! The jubilant plantation will serve as an education center for students and industries. The tree species used for this record plantation was the Tara tree (Caesalpinia spinosa), the fond native of Peru. It is a small deciduous tree with yellow, attractive looking fragrant flowers. It does not have spines as the name suggests. The pods and the seeds are also colourful. Tara tree grows in the valleys of Andes. Surprisingly forest surrounding Pune has about 50 Tara trees. nbsp;Lima district in Peru is in the high mountains yet is devoid of water. It receives barely 1.5 cm of rain annually.

The hardy residents of Lima traditionally know of an innovative source of little water to quench their thirst. A lot of fog rolls up the mountains in Lima from the South Pacific Ocean year round. The Tara tree of Peru not only survives in the arid habitats of Lima but is known to absorb water from the fog. Droplets of water are formed on the Tara leaves and the water drips down to the ground. In some fog harvesting farms large funnels are placed below Tara trees to replenish the ground water. Amazingly it provides a source of drinking water in the periods of scarcity. The fog harvesting forests of Tara trees can suffice the water requirements of the denizens of Lima in future. Well, fog harvesting is only the most vital use of Tara trees. They have several economic uses. An extract produced from the pods of Tara is known as ‘Tara Powder’. It is used in leather tanning, food products, medicines, breweries and cosmetics.
