... could it be Polyscias scutellaria (syn. Crassula scutellaria, Nothopanax scutellarium, P. balfouriana, P. pinnata), commonly known as Balfour's aralia, fabian aralia, plum aralia, shield aralia ?

Regards.

[santhosh kumar es]

It seems to me Stereospermum sp. Most probably S. colais of Bignoniaceae

 

Thanks

Decidedly Bignoniaceae, likely a Markhamia species, quite possibly a rather toothy individual of M. lutea. This species is quite variable, and is now considered an umbrella species covering M. hidebrandtii, M. platycalyx, though I, for one, am not convinced of this...

I received three responses for my mail: Polyscias scutellaria by Dinesh Valke, Stereospermum colais by Santosh Kumar es, and Markhamia lutea by Kenneth Greby. I go for Markhamia lutea (Benth.) K. Schum., 1895 (Syn: Spathodea lutea Benth), a plant of tropical Africa known as SIALA in Uganda. Large stipules clinched the issue. I had collected this species from Herbal Garden Delhi earlier. I am uploading those photographs in flower and fruit.The plant is described in Trees of Delhi By Pradip Krishen.

 

Thanks Kenneth, Dinesh and Santosh.

This looks like the pics I had posted a week or so ago, titled, "Yellow -Flowered Tree outside the British Council in Chennai."

Please do confirm.

I shall have to look out for the seed pods.

 

Thanks,

Padmini Raghavan.

Padmani ji

You are right, it is indeed same plant

[Satish Phadke]

Hi all
Padmini's plant appears to be Markhamia but Gurcharanjji's plant appears to be different as leaves have serrate or dentate margins.

Markhamia lutea, I thought has toothed leaves and large stipules as distinctive features, both visible in my photographs.
