\u00bf Bruguiera gymnorhiza ? – indiantreepix | Google Groups<\/span><\/a>\u00a0: 9 posts by 2 authors. 2 images.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

I have 2 photos of a flower … it is a query from one of my flickr friends.
\nTo me it looks like Bruguiera gymnorhiza<\/em>.<\/div>\n
\n
Some info:<\/div>\n
garlands at\u00a0a big flower market<\/span> in Kolkata<\/span> … garland-makers told that the plant has lots of nectar … the garlands smelled like honey
\n<\/span>Please validate.<\/span><\/div>\n

\nTo me it looks different or the full flower picture is not posted as something is missing in the centre.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n

\n

do I consider that you\u00a0too believe this to be Bruguiera gymnorhiza<\/em>\u00a0?<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

I can’t say- I just checked the links & gave my remarks on your species.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n
Daniel Mosquin, who had sent me the query is convinced, and he believes it to be Bruguiera gymnorhiza<\/em>.
\nHe referred this link particularly :<\/div>\n
http:\/\/cccmkc.edu.hk\/~kei-kph\/Mangrove\/800.jpg<\/span><\/a> {picture)<\/div>\n
FOS pg 27 is what I had referred for tentative identification.
\nFOI has it at: <\/span>http:\/\/www.flowersofindia.BurmaMangrove.html<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n
I think if the sender is convinced, it may be the same as the flower picture is not complete & I am not familiar with similar flowers.
\nOn checking up on net I could not find these flowers used in garlands, though it is quite possible to\u00a0have them in Kolkata from Sundarbans & Coastal areas nearby.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

Efforts of Dinesh ji & confirmation from Daniel Mosquin is now a big story, stumping so many on Id except our own …- see the big story at: http:\/\/www.humanflowerproject.com\/<\/span><\/a>
\nNow I recall I think these flowers are used in Kali Temple, Kolkata for garlanding the deity. <\/span>I will have a close look when I get the opportunity to do so next time in Kolkata.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n
Daniel happened to remember me and I happened to remember the flower in FOS pg 27 !!
\nBut I\u00a0wanted to\u00a0equally make sure\u00a0that these flowers\u00a0are commonly used for making garlands in Kolkata.<\/span><\/div>\n
