buddha belly bamboo<\/b>?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n
Please recall your recent visit to Indian Botanic Garden.\u00a0 Plenty of them in the Bambu(oo)setum there.<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Yes Bambusa ventricosa<\/i>, the Buddha’s belly bamboo<\/b>.<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

well good,\u00a0 Pankaj has validated, so now i will upload an example from kol bot g, its from 2011 near the cactus house<\/span><\/span>, thats what habitat picture is showing.<\/p>\n

\n
… here is one that every visitor can see\u00a0at least this bunch is quite prominent, and shows its collective habit.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

cactus garden is on the path \/walk that meanders along the river in area marked XX. <\/span><\/span>my picture of the map is from 2007\u00a0for someone else i had marked it for the large cannonball tree which is at the apex of the triangle XX, this bambusa clump is at the base of the triangle XX near the red rectangle<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The Cactus House Plate is visible which is near CNH building. I am sending this image to … for confirmation of location.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

This bamboo is plenty in the Bambusetum of the IBG.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

thanks … picture of map is from the garden,, in 2007 and of the bamboo is from 2011. it would be nice if … will confirm<\/p>\n

\n

and also could\u00a0 he tell us if the map in its former glory has been restored yet or not??? or is it further detailed ie improved upon?<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
” The Cactus House Plate is visible which is near CNH building<\/span><\/span>“<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

yes, … i deliberately chose to send that picture, so that anybody visiting now can easily find it.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

i try to include some markers in habitat pictures for myself too. so i can go back and relocate the plant or tree in digital age its easier and much much cheaper. also, when i ask people for habitat pictures its not an empty busy body request, it has a purpose<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
… informs that this is still present at both sides of the entrance of Cactus house.<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

Thank you\u00a0… and please thank … good to know. have they mapped their important trees on a map, and if so, can his office share it with me ?<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

The Botanic garden faced PIL in High court over a period of four years. As per HC directions many reforms were done such as no plastic, no vehicle, no smoking and so on. Consequently they also carried out census of all perennial plants. Sabapathy is now carrying a mobile and with the help of Google map he can show us exact location of any plant with botanical names. Really wonderful.<\/p>\n

\n

oh ok, … but that does not help me while visiting shibpur garden. only after the fact and while sitting at a computer. well thats at least progress. may be thats in the direction of making an app in the future<\/p>\n

\n

Thanks, ….\u00a0 I wonder at your great details!!!<\/p>\n

\n

whenever possible i do that for myself or others. good informative habitat picture. topographical memory upkeep and navigation ability has a side effect.\u00a0new research shows that is keeps dementia away. that’s why learning about maps and navigating around the city. even unfamiliar city is encouraged nowadays by forward thinking neurologists.<\/p>\n
