Sharing some images of the bark and of the fruits of Croton persimilis, a small tree, cultivated in South Mumbai. 

Self-sown seeds germinate quite well, as is evident from the number of seedlings that have sprouted in the undergrowth.

Photographed yesterday in the campus of RA Podar Medical College (Ayurvedic) in Worli, South Mumbai.

Best wishes, Viplav

As mentioned in my post, it is a small tree (c. 16 feet tall). Do not have a good photo of the entire tree at the moment.

Variegated crotons [Codiaeum variegatum] are usually bushy shrubs cultivated in gardens, hedges etc.

Best wishes, Viplav
