Neha ji, Cassia renigera has longer filaments swollen in the middle, not
seen in above flowers. In addition C. renigera has large reniform stipules
almost 2.5 cm broad, whereas C. grandis has minute stipules not larger than
2 mm. Although leaf base is not clearly seen, but stipules appear to be
good, still you manage to click some photos..

These are Sheethsona and Vanu-raja to this tree *Bauhinia racemosa* Lam.

baw-HIN-ee-uh -- named for Gaspard and Jean Bauhin,
Good catch indeed. Now it is easy to remember the broader petals of these
flowers apart from other characters like stamens and variegated nature to
compare with B.purpurea

A beautiful tree.
In Marathi different names are given for diff. inflorescences
Gulmohor : Delonix regia
Neelmohor : Jacjaranda
Manimohor : Colvillea due to bead like appearance of buds?

Really interesting
7-8 stamens are seen in the first photograph, where incidently the
associated leaves don;t appear to be Bauhinia
Second photograph with clear Bauhinia leaves has five stamens.
Perhaps Dineh ji can explain better.
