Terminalia catappa. Family Combretaceae. Indian almond or tropical almond. Last month I had posted the pictures of this tree when the leaves were green. Now they have started turning red and also produced fruits . The tree shed leaves twice in a year, and change of colour of the leaves reminds the fall season in cold countries, when most of the trees (broad leaved) fall down after changing colour.
Date/Time-Oct 2011 Location-Place, Altitude, GPS-Pune Habitat- Garden/ Urban/ Wild/ Type-Wild Plant Habit-Tree/ Shrub/ Climber/ Herb- Herb Height/Length- about 3 cms Leaves Type/ Shape/ Size- green rectangular about 5cms by 2.5 cms no flowers or fruits seen ... new shoot of saplings are interesting, like the one you are showing. The leaves (or leaflets) are often different from what are seen on a matured plant. I think these are first leaves of the sapling of Terminalia catappa. Family: Combretaceae Yes around my house there are many Terminalia catappa trees. This is really an interesting thread. I am proud that our members can id plants even in the stage of just two juvenile leaves :) My boss can even id from fruits, passing through guts and coming out of butts from ungulates :P.. Even from terrestrial turtles....I always keep scratching my head, how he does it. Buts its all experience. I was talking abt ... He is now at ICIMOD, Kathmandu
