Here's the first flowering of Erythrinia with a visitor seen at the south end of the forest in Mumbai - most likely Erythrinia variegata L. The bark has vertical lines and prickles on trunk and young branches- Request validation.
 
regards,
Rashida.

yes it the flowering has reduced in recent years due to a infection
which is very common in Erythrina, the inflorescence get infected and
the flowering axis swells irregularly, hence the flowering gets
reduced.
