Salix tetrasperma indeed
Is it flowering now? The new leaves are coming up, you have to see the photo of … one week back from the same spot Flora Picture of the Year 2012- Shrikant Ingalhalikar: Oh! What a maevellous scape!!! Many Thanks … for sharing this habitat of a tree species.
These are male plant and male catkin and of Salix tetrasperma Roxb. (Salicaceae). I have collected this plant just beside river Ganges in Barrackpore Sheoraphully ferry ghat( station in river bank for launch and boat), West Bengal.
I have kind of funny experience with this plant. I visited that place for 5-6 times in winter during 2005-2007. The place was so dirty and it’s very bad smelling too. People around the ferry ghat were surprisingly looked at me and even asked “why are you going in such a dirty place for collecting that plants?” My simple answer could not satisfy them. Then they had through their next question! “Is the plant has any anti-cancerous property”. I said “no” and told them it’s other medicinal value. They were little bit disappointed!! Good to know One can see this in west bengal Very well narrated incident, which everybody always faces. I am in the process of updating the blog and your picture will get included shortly. Indian Willow Tree, Lalbagh, Bangalore : Attachments (3 + 3). 18 posts by 12 authors.
Indian Willow tree in full bloom in Lalbagh, Bangalore Beautiful pictures … This is Salix tetrasperma of Salicaceae. It does not show this much profuse flowering in Delhi. Can’t wait to go and see it. oh yes, really have to see it … Amazing beauty of willow, I could not imagine this can look so elegant. Really nice pictures of Salix tetrasperma. spectacular…. later, can you also take pictures of the leaves, branches, and tree trunk… There are good number of species of Salix in Kashmir (though not S. tetrasperma). This year I am visiting Kashmir in April mainly to capture these in flower. I don’t know whether I would be able to catch the most spectacular of all the Salix caprea, the first species to flower in Kashmir as early as late February, producing most fragrant flowers, whose fragrance like Magnolia grandiflora can be felt from several metres. We used to keep twigs of this in flower in flower pots to give fragrance in the room for several days. Attaching few more pics … This season, you must to go to Mandya district(Karnataka) and watch these blooms along streamsides and along the Vishveshwaraya canal or around Nanjangud temple along the banks of the kaveri river. I went to Lalbagh again today and looks like the flowering is over. It was full of fresh leaves today. Need help with identification of a tree /shrub.
it was seen along the banks of river Godavari (riparian area) in marshy area.
the plant was small, not in flowering. I am sorry for that as this would make the identification difficult
date of siting: 8th Jan 2012
size: 8-10 ft
tender brabches and petioles were reddish.
margins of leaf were serrate
leaf was shiny green
the plant also did not show any branching
the rest of information has been depicted in the photographs. This can be a Salix species in my opinion.. Thanks a lot … this is Salix tetrasperrma in my opinion ! Yes … It does appear to be Salix tetrasperma. … the photos of S. tetrasperma you uploaded on efloraofindia were really helpful in identification Request for tree ID: Is this some kind of Acacia ?
Date/Time : November 2011/ Afternoon
Location : Nanjangud [ Near Mysore] May be a Salix species? Yes I too think this is some species of Salix rather than Acacia. One more picture in case it helps. Decidedly Salix sp., not Acacia. Not sure which species though. Was it on the banks of any river. The typical habitat of Salix tetrasperma. The pictures that I sent were from a paddy field [wetland] with the trees growing along the bunds. But there were a few of these trees growing on the banks of the River Kabini some distance away. I did think of Salix tetrasperma after I read the description and saw the picture here. But the trees I saw were much more golden/yellow hued as in my photo.The leaves look similar, but I really don’t know enough to distinguish! You might be knowing but I would like to add: The trees on the river bank look very similar. The photographs show habit and male catkins of S. tetrasperma Roxb. The male catkins are much larger than those of its closely allied S. ichnostachya.
Two species of Salix are however reported from Karnataka. One is S. tetrasperma and the other is S. ichnostachya. Both appear very similar in the field and shared many common features as both these species belong to the sect. Tetraspermae. Their blooming season is also same i.e. October-December. A key to the species is presented below:
A. A. Stamens 5-10; ovary stipitate, glabrous; capsules ovoid …… S. tetrasperma

Many trees on the banks of River Krishna Wai Mah A lone tree (Male) in Pune on the banks of river Mutha Excellent photographs … But I think the collection is a mixed of S.tetrasperma and S. ichnostachya. I have one doubt regarding your 3rd picture. It is perhaps S. ichnostachya. I’m under impression that you took photograph 3 and 4 from different plants. The leaves of picture 4 represent good numbers of supportive characters of S. tetrasperma (blades lanceolate, serrate to serrulate at margin, silvery glaucous and glabrous beneath). But in picture 3, I found many character of S. ichnostachya like crenate-serrate leaf margin; petiole, rachis of catkins and under surface of leaf are pupescent and bracts of male flower reach almost ½ of the filaments. Can you please other close up photograph (if you have) of the 3rd picture for its further confirmation? Do you remember whether the bracts are glabrous or much hairy in the male flowers (of the 3rd picture)? I’ll post Salix tetrasperma from West Bengal. You can compare it with your specimens. Thanks for the feedback.
Yes you are right. The first two photographs are from Wai. The last two are from Pune city. The only tree of its kind in the city and male one so won’t bear fruits. Will check if I have any more photographs esp the macros and put them for critical analysis Salicaceae (including Flacourtiaceae) Fortnight: Salix tetrasperma from Barrackpore, West Bengal, SC17 : 2 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (8). This species is not a Himalayan one and found in the tropical regions in our country. S. tetrasperma have many primitive features like tree habit, leaves acuminate, catkin lax-flowered, stamens multiple, ovary stipitate etc.
It is the most common species of the genus Salix in India and growing mainly along the river, stream side and moist places. This species is collected just beside river Ganges, Barrackpore.

I was sure that there were Salix tetrasperma at this place near water bodies. On 14-11-2017 I notices for the first time a tree of that species was in bloom. Few visits more and I captured a Red base Jezebel visiting the flowers. I visited other places where I saw this tree. But they were missing due to human greed. This year I recorded some insects visiting flowers of another two trees in the area on 27-10 2018, 30-10-2018 and 1-11-2018. On 7-11-2018 I noticed another tree with buds. I thought it to be a late bloomer. I visited the tree on subsequent days to see the tree in bloom and insects visiting the flowers. But a surprise was waiting for me on 20-11-2018, I saw some cotton like substance being released by the catkins. I thought the tree to be a different species of Salix. My friend Dr A P Das told me that the two trees are of same species ie Salix tetrasperma (INDIAN WILLOW/ JALMALA/ BAISHAKI). He also told me that the tree is dioecious ie male and female flowers bloom on different trees. This was a fascinating information for me.
Attaching tree images of male and five images of female tree of Salix tetrasperma. Nature is full of wonders.
