Saw this tree in IIT Mumbai Campus. Thought it was Lagestroemia Sp.
Could somebody confirm? The flowers look slightly different to me.

| I believe it is decidedly a Lagerstroemia species, perhaps L. floribunda or L. loudonii. The latter has tan tomentum on the foliage. It could also be some other local species; perhaps someone else knows. Regards-- Ken Greby Palmetto Bay, Florida USA --- On Wed, 8/20/08, Anand Kumar Bhatt <anand...@gmail.com> wrote: |

L. floribunda (and L. loudonii) are warm-subtropical to tropical species. They would not grow in areas receiving any frost. I'm not sure of the climate in the area in which the tree is growing, but if it receives frost, I would be more inclined to then go with L. indica.

It is Lagerstromia thorelii- from Bapu Gosawi |

As per Trees of Delhi (2005), Lagerstroemia thorellii is misaapplied in India for Lagerstroemia speciosa |
