A reply from another thread:

"Dear Muthu ji ... have not seen the fruiting in my sightings.

The size is written to be about 10 cm dia; and two links to group's database show the fruits (one of the posts is yours -- seeking validation) ...

1. Capparis moonii
2. Capparis for identification 020712MK01

I strongly believe your post shows the fruit of C. moonii.

Regards.

Dinesh"
