Re: [efloraofindia:67968] dillenia pentagyna
Hi Neil and Joshi Pankaj It is possible, but only the newly planted saplings are watered I don't have an older dellinia pentagyna, but most older other trees, which are definitely not watered, are showing new leaf. In any case I dont have any observations from earlier years, so it is not possible to make comparisons. regards mohina macker On Sun, Apr 24, 2011 at 6:45 PM, Neil Soares drneilsoa...@yahoo.com wrote: Hi Mohina, Have a sneaking suspicion that the aberrant appearance of new leaves has more to do with over-watering of your plants by over-enthusiastic farmhands than any drastic climatic changes. Please check. Have encountered the same with my saplings but not with the established trees.
