Location- Place, Altitude - Kaiga , Uttar Kannada ,Karnataka, 380 mtrs Habitat- Garden/ Urban/ Wild/ Type- wild Plant Habit- Tree/ Shrub/ Climber/ Herb- tree Height/Length-4-5m - Pink bean like flowers on small trees, with branches growing oddly straight up from the trunk, and small leaves just starting to sprout... seemed to be pinnate.. This spring, I just happen to "discover" this gorgeous pink tree growing in multiple stretches along paddy fields and road side in West Bengal in a region between Uluberia and Gadiara, which is on the bank of river Hooghly/Bhagirathi meets Damodar ... so at sea level, in fertile black soil....(googled info says Roopnarayan river meets too, but I have not found it, in reality, nor on any modern map) not knowing the scientific nor the colloquial name of my beautiful find (nobody) in the neighborhood knew the name.... and not being a botanist... I had a hard time ID ing it.... and that's how I discovered eflora group... and it was exhilarating to track down name, uses, ethnobotany of this tree... my first Gliricidia sepium. I will always remember this tree fondly, and next time I'll take careful pictures... Please convey this message to Mr. .... for starting this group and to all those who have sustained it....I still have not learnt all the secrets of
navigation for group to be able to find individual email id... - It's may be Mundulea sericea. please find the seed pods. One more photo for 24032011pj1 Id request: Pl find attached one more photo for 24032011pj1 Id request
Searching for local name for: Quickstick (Gliricidia sepium) in flower.... a tree native to Central America and Mexico which grows well in India... Plenty in Mhow (MP), rare in Delhi. Also known as - Nicaraguan Shade Tree, Cocoa Shade, Spotted Gliricidia, mexican lila
I have not heard of any local name. Pradip Krishen's field guide "Trees of Delhi" confirmed this. It actually mentions "no local name"... In Malayalam we call it Sheema Konna - ശീമക്കൊന്ന 'Sheema' generally indicates anything that is exotic (that has come crossing the seas) and konna generally refers to any cassia in Malayalam. Tamil name: விவசாய தகரை (Vivasaaya thagarai). Vivasaaya = agricultural; Thagarai = Cassia (C. tora). My GUESS on its etymology: The plant is a relative of 'thagarai' and the leaves used as green manure in agricultural fields (so the name 'vivasaaya'). Yes it is , an important green manure in Kerala also. The plant is exotic so it becomes very hard to have a traditional local name, when the plants are imported many time we start using the Latin name as common name and some time we end up giving some fancy name according to its character..
well Gliricidia in Maharashtra known by name 'Undir-Maar' & 'Giripushpa', Undir maar meaning killing rats, which is also a meaning of Gliricidia. and Giripushpa bcoz of its leaf manure. only pod & leaves ID from Hooghly 22-04-12 SK-3: I regret i don't have any flower of this small tree, only leaves and pod images.

Do let me know if the name does not seem to be valid.

The forest department has planted these trees in large scales all over India. A rapidly growing tree; good nitrogen fixing properties; prevents soil erosion. Of course there are some not so good effects on the habitat. I don't want to go into the controversies.....

Bangalore - RA - Gliricidia sepium - Mexican Lilac Tree - Quickstick: Tree from Mexico and South America that is used both to provide shade to chocolate trees and also enrich the soil; hence the common name meaning "mother of cocoa." The wood is durable and useful for posts and railway ties. It is a small to medium-sized, thornless tree which usually attains a height of 10-12 m. Branching is frequently from the base with basal diameters reaching 50-70 cm. The bark is smooth but can vary in colour from whitish grey to deep red-brown. The stem and branches are commonly flecked with small white lenticels. Infloresences appear as clustered racemes on distal parts on new and old wood, 5-15 cm long, flowers borne singly with 20-40 per raceme. Flowers bright pink to lilac, tinged with white, usually with a diffuse pale yellow spot at the base of the standard petal, calyx glabrous, green, often tinged red. The best time for the flowers is February to April. The fruit is a 2-valved long pod. In various parts of America, the bark is used as rat poison
