Pink-flowered shrub : 4 posts by 3 authors. 2 images.

Please identify the below Pink-flowered big shrub / trimmed tree. Looks very similar to Nerium (Oleander), which it isn’t. No secretions / sap.
Used commonly as a hedge plant, here in most MNC corporate offices in Pune.
Slight medicinal/ woody odour similar to basil wood, when leaves are crushed.

Looks like Ravenia spectabilis..


Yes, Ravenia spectabilis, a popular ornamental shrub..


Bingo!!! Thanks a lot. Now I can sleep peacefully 🙂

Unidentified Pink flowered shrub : 3 posts by 3 authors.

Can anybody identify this small tree / shrub with pink flowers. Looks like Nerium (Oleander) but it isn’t (No secretions)
The leaves are very slightly medicinal / woody smelling.
This flowers profusely, and seems to be a common hedge plant in the compounds of corporate offices of MNCs (in Pune!!!)
Hope somebody identifies this mysterious plant.

Ravenia spectabilis.
