Clusia rosea: I suddenly noticed the roots of the Autograph Tree and wondered if it was a mangrove species. I came across this fascinating item on the net. Hope you like it. But ... was saying its definitely not lakoocha. Any ideas? Clusia sp. of Clusiaceae family. Most probably C. rosea. Yes ... this definitely Clusia rosea A medium sized tree observed in a garden since British times in Kolhapur. Planted one. Flower white 5-10cm in size. Leaves obovate coriaceous, I think opposite. This could be a species of Clusia of Clusiaceae family. Thanks for the opinion ... It surely looks like Clusiaceae. yes Clusia rosea

Nice and new to me.. thanks ... you are showing us a lot of beautiful plants... Goa, May 2015 :: Requesting ID of this tree :: ARKJUN-09/20 : 9 posts by 6 authors. Attachments (5) Requesting to please ID this tree from a beach resort at Varca, Goa in May 2015. It looks like Avicennia Thanks ... This was a big tree and was not growing in the water/swamp. Besides, the leaves were much bigger (around 6-8 inches) than the Avicennia that I have seen. Only leaf shape comparable to Avicennia officinalis. But the fleshy leaves, leaf size, short petiole, trunk (bark) character raise some doubt.This tree looks like Carallia brachiate Rhizophoraceae (an inland rhizophoraceae) pleae confirm from fllowing link http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Freshwater%20Mangrove.html Thanks ... for the possible ID...hoping to receive validation of the same. The leaves are indeed similar to Carallia brachiata, a non-mangrove Rhizophoraceae. Leaves suggest it could be Clusia species. (C..rosea ? depending on the flowers) I checked with the Horticulture department of the resort from where this was clicked, the horticulturist confirmed that this is Clusia rosea. Thanks ... for the ID.... Fwd: Tree facts : Autograph tree. : 3 posts by 2 authors. I am forwarding the link for my latest article published in Star of Mysore.
