Wiki says the following:
H. benghalensis is a stout, high-climbing liana or large shrub, with white or yellowish hairs on the stem. Its leaves are lanceolate to ovate-lanceolate and approximately 20 cm (8 in) long,[1] and 9 cm (4 in) broad; petioles are up to 1 cm long.[5] It has scandent branches up to 5 m (16 ft) high.[1] Hiptage benghalensis. This has very interesting fruits(?). They have three wings and if you throw them up in the air, they fall spiraling. My little cousin calls them helicopter seeds 🙂
