Request ID. Pics taken last week September, 2013 - Bangalore.
It is Dracaena fragrans.
Thank you ...
 
Kindly confirm the identification. The tree has been growing at our house in Hyderabad since the 1980s and this is the first time we saw it flowering. The flowers had an intense "Raat-ki-rani" fragrance evident only in the late evening and night.
Height of tree: about 9 metres.
Florescence: about 60-80 cms long.
Fruit: spherical about 1 cm diameter.
Yes, it is Dracaena fragrans. Very good pictures.

Thank you Mam. It was a great surprise to us when this tree flowered but very quickly we were afflicted by nasal allergy by the strong fragrance.

I was privileged to see some 50 Leopard Lace wing emerging from pupa in last two months. I observed
(a) Butterflies emerging in November and early December come out around 10AM and fly by 12PM or so. Number of males and females were evenly distributed.
(b) Butterfly emerging in December end and January were coming out  at about 1 PM and fly by 11AM on the next day. They were mostly male.
Attaching an image of a newly released male Leopard Lace Wing visiting flowers of Dracaena fragrans.

Ornamental?  
It was on road side.
Appears to be an ornamental plant. Unable to recall the family name also.
... just a guess: is it some Dracaena ?
At the outset it looks like a species of Drocena.   
Dracaena or Drocena ?
Guess matches with some Dracaena but could not confirm ID !
Dracaena. Pl. Check comparative images in efi. 

I think closer to images at Dracaena fragrans (L.) Ker Gawl. as per comparative images at Dracaena
Does Dracaena fragrans produce berries.
Of course yes. https://garden.org/plants/photo/316314/. There are many varieties in this species. 
I get the flowers only on my plant.

This appears to be one of the varieties of the ornamental Dracaena deremensis in fruit.
Dracaena deremensis Engl. is a synonym of Dracaena fragrans (L.) Ker Gawl.

Thanks, ... I agree with you as per

Thanks ... for the correction. I will amend my data.
Probably Dracaena fragrans 'Massangeana' would be the correct name?
