Dear Friends
Request id for this tree photographed last month growing inside the campus at the foothills of
Velliangiri hills, Coimbatore. Flowers were high up and hence close shots were not possible with my camera.

thanks and best wishes

I believe it is Tabernaemontana divaricata, "Pinwheel Jasmine", in the
Apocynaceae.

Hi everyone
I looked up Tabernaemontana divaricata at the Flowers of India site
http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Crape%20Jasmine%20Flore%20Pleno.html
The site describes it as Crape jasmine, Carnation of India, Chandni चांदनी (Hindi), நந்தியார்வட்டை Nandiar vattai (Tamil), Sagar (Gujarati), Ananta (Marathi) but not as "Pinwheel jasmine" although description says,"The usual variety has pinwheel shaped five-petal flowers"

The நந்தியார்வட்டை Nandiar vattai (Tamil name) plant that i know and have seen at several places did not grow as tall as the one i photographed. I photographed this from outside the compound wall ( wall of considerable height- close to 15ft.) The plant was a few feet well above and clear of the compound wall. I presumed it to be a tree. Perhaps it was a tall shrub? Will check this fact out during my next visit.

Second question is this -Tabernaemontana divaricata that i have known have white flowers whose petals are 5 in number and  clearly visible in the pinwhell fashion;
then there is one where the petals are many ( in layman's term-  'double' and  for horticulturists it's i think 'Flore Pleno').
So is this a third variety?

If you look up the image at this site( from USA) it looks something even more different.

http://www.biolib.cz/en/taxonimage/id56016/


Convinced it is  Tabernaemontana  is it divaricata  ?
The FRLHT's site mention several species but images were not available.

So friends please help and clarify.

cheers

Dear Gargji,

It doesnt look like Chonemorpha fragrans, at least the fruits are different.
Further it was mentioned that it is a tall tree, but not sure whether the person who posted the pictures was confused with the flowers of liana over a tree or not!
Not Beaumontia jerdoniana as well.

Regards,
Giby

Based on the fruit it is not Chonemorpha fragrans;
to it looks closer to Stemmasenia littoralis or other species of Stemmadenia, it looks like Tabernemontana flower, fruit also looks similar
thank you
