Pictures taken at Jijamata Udyan, Mumbai on the 18th of Nov,11.
A potted plant, about 4 feet in height.
No flowers or pods seen when picture was taken.
Seems to be some Acacia species.
Could this be "Camel thorn" tree : Acacia girrafeae ?
it is Acacia horrida (L.) Willd.
a few plants were observed at Vermat Jijabai Bhonsale Udyan, Mumbai
So sorry to have missed out on this post of yours identifying my Acacia plant.
Since I observed it today at the nursery, went through my earlier post. Thanks for the id.
While searching, Acacia erioloba also seemed similar.
Adding few more pictures taken this week of the same plant.
