Brownea rosea – is the name plate in Lalbagh
Can somebody confirm this?

Brownea for sure. Not B.rosea. Most probably B.coccinea.

Yes most likely b. coccinea… that’s the plate of ID on the trees in the Agri-Hort garden in Kolkata…
parrots (rose ringed parakeets???) love to eat this flower/ flower bud… I have spied them eating the flower both at the Kol Bot G and at the Chinatmoni Kar bird sanctuary…
