Dinesh ji,

It is a pleasure to experience your photography on this forum. I have
one question - why is this tree known as black sirish? I don't
understand the siginificance of the colour black.

Regards, Debashish

Hi Dinesh,
  It is called Kala Siris becuse compared to the other species of this family, it's leaves are very dark and when they dry they assume a black colour.
  Have this tree on my property at Shahapur, the photographs of which are available at this link :
 
 
                        With regards,
                          Neil Soares.
