Shrub for id from Solan- 2010 : Attachments (8). 3 posts by 2 authors.
These shots (though not much clear) were recorded from Solan-Shimla road, this was a small tree or a shrub, with creamy white flowers.. perhaps a Rubiaceae member.. please provide id hints..
Another set of excellent photographs. Many thanks again …, this is a great help… My mind was revolving near Ixora.. but the corolla tube?.. I was not having any clues.. happy to find conclusion…

1st November 2014 Cornus oblonga..
thanks for identifying features’ fotos Is it Viburnum cylindricum ???
Place: Shimla, Solan (H.P.) 23 Sept., 2013 I think appears to match with images at Viburnum cylindricum To me it does not resemble with V.cylindricum in which corolla lobes are five, very small and erect. In this plant corolla lobes appear 4, large and spreading.
The generic ID may also be rechecked. I am not sure for Viburnum. I hope this can be Cornus oblonga….

Ok
Four petals and two stamens suggest some Oleaceae member.
Cornus oblonga ????

nice. why the nepali name includes Kaath. does its wood find some uses?
Kath means wood !
I know that. what I asked was- does this have some useful wood
==
is it used for utensils, furniture etc?
The bark contains essential oils and tannins and is used in folk remedies to treat arthritis and injuries and besides this the tree is lopped for fodder. No specific use for furniture since stem is not so thick.
