It is my pleasure to share few images of Ailanthus triphysa (Simaroubaceae) Kindly observe that the leaf margin is entire, a character that distinguishes it from Ailanthus excelsa. Ref:http://florakarnataka.ces.iisc.ernet.in/hjcb2/herbsheet.php?id=4228&cat=1 Habit: Tree Habitat: Wild, moist deciduous forest fringe. Sighting: Devadana, Chikmagalur, Karnataka, about 1200 msl Date: 11-03-2015 nice. do you take wide angle views? so would love to see the whole tree i.e. shape, habit and also its trunk and pictures of the bark
No … I do not have a wide angle lens. Its either in portrait or landscape modes. Often the distance between the lens and the subject is the limitation in taking a full view… Objects in between that are to be avoided also matter. that very true Sonepat, Haryana, today.
A few specimens have been planted along the Delhi Canal in Sonepat, Haryana.
Looks distinctly like Duabanga (Duabanga grandiflora), although I wonder what is it doing here in this scorching weather! It does well in NE India.
http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Duabanga.html Though the tree looks like Duabanga grandiflora, but Trees of Delhi does not mention this tree.
It is possible that this has been planted in Haryana, but not in Delhi. If Duabanga has been planted somewhere in Delhi, it is also possible that Pradip Krishen missed it. We have found some trees in Delhi which are not listed in Trees of Delhi.
looks more like Ailathus triphysa or Cedrella odorata
I would be wrong if the leaves are indeed compound. My thinking was based on the feeling that these are simple leaves, giving the impression of pinnate leaf leaflets.
I am now really curious to know the identity of this one! … guess, Ailanthus triphysa sounds good!

May somebody finally confirm the Id pl.
