Some earlier relevant feedback:
Might be Burseraceae- from Paradesi ji |
Thanks a lot Anjaneyulu ji. I was thinking it could be a Commiphora species (Burseraceae) . Meanwhile you suggested the family. I will try to work on it.- from Mahadeswara ji |
Sending h/w two more photos received. - from Mahadeswara ji |
Thanks, Paradesi ji and Mahadeswara ji. On checking the family in efloraofindia, I could track it upto Commiphora wightii (Arn.) Bhandari as per images and details herein and as per https://laidbackgardener.blog/2017/12/22/the-two-plants-of-the-magi/ https://www.flipkart.com/chamunda-greens-commiphora-wightii/p/itm33117aadfa00a ICAR But flowers look different as per Images at Commiphora wightii (Arn.) Bhandari http://gardentia.sitewalla.com/2013/09/16/guggul/ Observations on Flowering and Fruiting in Commiphora wightii (Arnott) Bhandari |
Could not find a match with other species listed in Flora of Peninsular India (namely Commiphora berryi, Commiphora caudata var. caudata, Commiphora caudata var. pubescens, Commiphora gileadensis, Commiphora myrrha, Commiphora stocksiana, Commiphora wightii)- from me |
I was following this thread. I want to know a thing or two about bonsai :-
Flowers in this species seem to have staminal tube - so why not check for meliaceae member, for example - https://www.discoverlife.org/mp/20p?see=I_SP512&res=640 ? Thank you With regards surajit koley |
Thanks for taking interest in this thread to unravel its identity .Regarding your queries, |
1. No. the stunted growth does not deform the plant but it manifest in miniature forms. 2. Sure. 3. Yes they remain in normal form. Meanwhile I am asking the sender of these photographs to allow the plant to grow on its own without clipping the plant parts. Let us see what happens. Regards, Dr.Mahadeswara Swamy |
However, your answers no. 1 & 2 imply - this species wouldn't be a Meliaceae member, because they mostly have pinnate leaves with entire margins of leaflets. |
Please do not waste your time on Meliaceae. |
Thank you With regards surajit koley |
I have another suggestion, if I may - please think of it before any search or allotting your time to it - What about the probability of a rutaceae member? (since I think some of those flowers also look similar, and they are used for bonsai, and the flower colour in your species is actually greenish-white, not yellow.! And also take care of those green-turning-orange fruit in your pic no MG-20210518-WA0018). |
I still cannot get rid of meliaceae though! Just check some fruit pics -
The problem area is crenate leaf (or leaflets?) |
Thank you With regards surajit koley |
