Photographed this one in the forest of Handi Bhadang nath in Karnataka. Bot. name: Xylia xylocarpa Family: Mimosaceae Date/Time: 24-04-2011 / 10:30AM Habitat: Wild Plant habit: Tree. Have this on my property. This is what the leaves look like. Very nice. Yet to come across this species. Quite unusual leaf pattern as against most Mimosaceae members.
It is very conspicuous in the flowering season owing to its bright yellow flowers. Xylia xylocarpa produces good timber. Its wood pulp is used for making wrapping paper. The seeds of this tree are edible. This tree is considered a medicinal plant in India. In Thailand its leaves are used to treat wounds in elephants. Burma Ironwood is a large deciduous tree to over 18 m high by 60 cm trunk diameter, native of eastern India, Burma and Thailand. Leaves are double-compound, carried on stalks 3-6 cm long. Leaflets are 2-4 pairs - lowest leaflets are 3-4 cm long, with a pointed tip. End leaflet is 7-15 cm long. Stalkless tiny white flowers arise in round heads 2 cm in diameter, carried in slender 7 cm long stalks. Pod is 10-16 cm long, 6 cm wide, woody, rusty velvety, shaped like a boomerang, splitting into two twisted segments. Flowering: March-April. Xylia xylocarpa Marathi names: Jambha, Yerul Today at Alibag, Maharashtra Nice set of photographs. I remember seeing few trees near Karnala Bird Sanc.
Xylia xylocarpa : 26032014 : RV 1: Attachments (3). 2 posts by 2 authors. Xylia xylocarpa is growing on my terrace in a big pot from the seeds collected & given to me, few years back, by a friend from Anshi forest. Its about 7 ft tall now and have started flowering this month. The flowers are at my eye level, while taking the close up picture of the flowers I noticed a petal like structure with a stalk, yellow in color, on the anthers. I was wondering what it is & why it is ?.....Are they anther glands? Would request help in knowing about this structure on the anthers. Anthers will contain pollen grains, when anther matures, it will split, pollen grains come out.

Please help with Nepali name(s) (if any) of Xylia xylocarpa. It is not listed in Nepal. OK, thanks ... May be it is found distributed in small scale OR its timber imported for commercial purpose. I had found this page in Forests and Forestry in Nepal by S. S. Negi, Sharad Singh Negi. And searching for its synonym - Xylia dolabriformis, I found its entry in Ancient Nepal - Journal of the Department of Archaeology. I find the popular name jambu given to the plant ... found on page 12 (as printed on page) or page 17 of the PDF. Jambu is found as a name given to this plant in many languages - for, the colour of heartwood is the rose-pink colour of jambu fruit. The ascent and pronunciation varies regionally. In the western coast, the local laterite stone also gets the same name jambu, because of the jambu colour. I think I will go with जांबु ... your thoughts, please. I checked and did not find any mention anywhere. OK. thanks ... I will use the references that I put in my above message, to list जांबु jaambu as Nepali name ...

Jambu, Jamba, Jamb ... all these spellings in English may not give hint to how it is pronounced in regional languages of India. जांबा / जंभा / जांभा / जांब / जांबु / जंबू / जम्बु / जम्बू are various spellings in Devanagari in different languages.
