Id plz:
can anyone help me id this plant its a tree, photographed at Amboli MH about 15days back (Posted on 16.2.12) The flower looks like plant belongs to the family Celastraceae. It would be of great help if you can provide additional information such as place where you see this species, time of flowering, any information on fruits, height of the plant etc… please look up the recent thread about Rhamnus wightii. I think this is the same plant although it would be helpful to know details of size of plant and habitat. The habitat of the Rhamnus sp. is very specific. Thank you all for helping me id I’m confused because in the post you said it’s a tree!
can anyone Id this small tree
it has sweet scented flowers
