Dear Friends,

One more very interesting tree commonly known as Bhadraksh,or false rudraksha, botanical name Guazuma ulmifolia is fruitng very profusely in Rani Bagh, Mumbai. I was lucky to get to see some flowers too. Sharing some photos of them with you all.

Regards,

Renee

Nice pictures of this Sterculiaceae family member.
There are a large number of these trees in IIT Madras campus.
In Pune I have seen few trees on BMCC and Bhandarkar and Prabhat road.
