Bauhinia vahlii is common in the eastern ghats near Vizag.So much of its leaf is coming to market, from which leaf plates are made.

Dear Ramakanth Ji,
        Plantation rate of native plants is gone very low. Am also finding difficult to find native seeds and plants. Even forest
nurseries sell non-indigenous plants. For example SGNP, the nursery of this park sells many non-indigenous species.
An if we ask for some native plant, they cannot recognize.
Regards
Sharmila

Greetings and wishes madam,

Slackness is expected when it comes to native or indigenous species, madam.
Everyone has forgotten it. So, I too feel that there must be some source for exchange of seeds or material of native or rare seeds, madam. 

I recently have been to Hanamakonda city, Warangal district, Telangana, on my work. Also, had visited the Forest geneticist office there, out of curiosity for some species of plants. I came across one B. Vahlii creeper there, and it has shed its fruit and seeds nearby. 
With the help of one staff member, I could collect few seeds, planning to grow them. 
So, I was searching about this plant in our efloraindia group and came across this message. So, I felt that I could share some seeds from what I've collected.
So, if the requirement is still there, I could pass on the seeds.

Thank you

Regards.

Ramakanth Reddy. K

Thanks Dr. Garg sir for forwarding my mail. 
Mr. Vishal, do you require them now. Let me know. I could give you few seeds. Let me know the purpose, if it's ok with you. Mail me. 
Also, Ms. Sharmila ji, I'd wait then. 

Thank you.

Ramakanth Reddy.

Dear Mr. Vishal,

I appreciate your interest for the plant species. I'd send 5 seeds of Bauhinia vahlii, to you by India post. 

Method of propagation is, soaking the seeds for one night and sow individually in the nursery poly bags. Water them daily. I'm 3-4 days you should see the germinated seedlings. 
Continue watering daily and allow the sapling to grow into plants. It's a rapidly growing plant, so, by 3 months, the plants in the polybags should be ready for transplantation in to the field or home or wherever. 
Maintaining the creeper. Trim back the branches or the main trunk if it's growing out of proportions. Dont worry, it grows back speedily. 

My humble request is to plant the extra one or two plants, if they are surviving, in a forest area or near by temples or any religious or places of your comfort, in country side or villages( where there is good land for the temple/ others). 
So that, this plant's leaves would be of some help, like using the leaves for plates, and so on. 
Plant always two plants instead of one. This would help in getting back good seeds from the plants we've sown( due to pollination between two or more plants ). 
This'd maintain healthy next generation of seeds and thereby vigour in plants.

Thank you.

All the best. Always Share with someone in need.
