A small tree seen at a resort in Bhimtal on 23/3/13.
Was told that it remains green always.
Was given a local name for it which I can’t recollect.
Any idea about the id?

Seems Cocculus laurifolius (Menispermaceae).

Many thanks for identifying this tree from Bhimtal.

I think the ID of my plant needs to be checked. It looks much different from the ones posted by Rawat ji and Nidhan ji.

There are a lot of variations in the shape of leaves in this species. Specimens from Jawa, Peru etc (RBG, Kew)look different from south Indian plants.

Thanks … for your opinion. I agree with you.

just the leaf size does not identify a plant
