This dead tree lies in a field, on the village outskirts, giving the birds a place to rest and unwind without fear of anything. It took them a while to accept my presence as well. August - monsoon time – and by 4 PM, the villagers start returning home quite early with the days’ gathering on their head shoulders (read vegetables, mostly greens, hay, green grass, pulses, sugar cane, plantain…). They return early to avoid the evening monsoon rains, winds and the cold air that blows by the river floods. There’s a transition taking place in the evening sky as the sun goes down and against this, the beautiful parakeets are etched out as if in technicolour. It’s a riot of colour and speech then as these lovely parakeets talk, chatter and perhaps even squabble with one another, flying in as they do and a new flock joining them from a different direction. Probably, the villagers and the parakeets are in tandem as regards reaching home early during this season. What is strange is that even after two years and after umpteen visits, especially during sunset, I was not able to sight these divine parakeets on the same tree.

[efloraofindia:49544] Re: KAAS..Ata BAA...SS !
Dear All I do not agree with few statements of Shrikant Ji like 'Kas flora diversity and distribution has not changed a bit in the last 35 years. This is in spite of trampling, burning, grazing and other local interventions over infinite years. Plants regenerating from seeds are abundent and plucking by a few over enthusiasts makes a little or no difference to their re-appearance. Plants said to have some use are plucked the most.' Pants are abundent right now as per your statement but what about next? ''Plucking by a few over enthusiasts makes a little or no difference to their re-appearance''. I strongly oppose this statement of yours. Dear sir, if every single visitor is plucking out a single plant every time what will happen? Its a common sense multiplication naturally stops after some time, may take longer time but it happens always. May be there is no change at Kas, as shrikant Ji said but if this continues, the day will no longer to turn Kas in Plataeu like Pachgani. Shrikant Ji as per your statement then Pachgani and Mahabaleshwar also seems to be same as they are in last 35 years? isn't it? Dear all these are my opinions and ofcourse everyone has a right to express with his own veiws. Thanx to support. If Nature Survive We Survive !!

Yes Neil Ji, it is Varas [Heterophragma quadriloculare]and not the Spathodea campanulata. I agree with you, but it is not a Stereospermum colais definitely.

Onother thing is that in ancient time or in Ayurveda ,the synonames of the plants are given or the plant is recognised with many names depending upon its habitat, colour, size, shape of the flowers and fruits, taste of the leaves, flowers, fruits etc.. e.g. 1. Shatavari- having 100s of roots. 2. Gokshura- spiny fruits get inserted to cow's toes. 3. Chitraka - Discolouration of skin takes place after application. 4. Kumari- Which never get fruits. 5. Amlika - having amla i.e. sour taste. 6. Ashwagandha- with the smell of horse, or smell in Stable. 7. Agnimantha-( Premna integrifolia) - Agni is produced by rubbing the dry wood sticks with each other. many many other examples can be given like this. In this case both Godhadi and Gokshura are totally opposite things and can not be the synoname for the same plant. Regards, Dr.Kadus Arvind,Pune.

Other synonames are Gokantaka, Shwadanshtra ( teeth like dog), Swadukantaka ( Sweet spines of the fruit), Trikantaka ( Fruit with three spines),Kantaphala, Kshuraka( meaning is same) and many other names.

Your photoes are seems to be B. purpurea, But real flowers I have seen or captured are absolutely white, not ant tinge of pink or purple.

[efloraofindia:42849] Re: 'Pseudo-vivipary' in Oroxylum indicum
Hi, Nice shots ! I have not seen the situation like this before.I think The Baby plants also knowing the condition of the 'Earth', they are also trying to conserve the nature and trying to come out early from the comb. Apart from this, in Ayurveda Tentu or O.indicum is one of the contents of 'Dashamoola' group used in many Vata disorders. Roots are used, thats why large exploitation is there. Need to cultivate in large scale ( In situ as well as Ex situ.) Thanx for the nice pictures. Regards Dr. Kadus Arvind. Pune.
