Katsagon Tree -Fernandoa adenophyllum

[bindu kapadia]

Hi,

During my recent visit to Ahmedabad,i was surprised to see these two  roadside trees

in the heart of the city.Just could'nt identify! It was only after returning ,referring to Pradip

Krishen i came to know that it is called Katsagon ,marodphali , Fernandoa adenophyllum .

Seems it does not have common English name.

Regards,

Bindu

Hi, Haplophragma adenophyllum is the accepted name for this plant. Common name is 'Karen wood'.

Thanks Bindu ji
You have shown full illustration of the tree.
In the earlier discussions on the posts of similar tree there were some doubts about different IDs. Now it is very clear from your photographs. I have yet to see this tree. Anybody has seen this tree in Maharashtra?
