What an impressive tree! 😊 And so far away from Fagus 🤦🏽😂

It's the foliage of tall tree (more than 12 meters in height), almost in rectangle shape, tree has no flower and no fruit, but I don't know #plantid 😞.

Maybe some kind of Fagus?

Is it a tree with a trunk and branches; or is it bunches of long single stems growing from the ground with a single leaf on each stem?

May be Kanak Champa.....

@Annettenoosa it's a tree of height 12-15 meters with long single trunk and branches on its top.

Thanks @blooming_hopes it's perfectly #kanakchampa.

@natii @Annettenoosa The tree is native to Indian subcontinent. It is commonly referred to as #KanakChampa, #Muchakunda, #Karnikara, #BayurTree, #Bayog, #MapleLeafedBayurTree and #DinnerPlateTree.

Glad you know now! Sounds very interesting :) Thank you for the information 😊

@ankur1406 @blooming_hopes Thank you. I hope one day to see this tree. The leaves are wonderful and the tree sounds magnificent.

Yeah ...and it gives beautiful flowers with a lovely smell .... 'Kanak' means 'golden' .....🌼🌼🌼 @Annettenoosa

@blooming_hopes but I never seen flowers on it in my region (near Delhi), why so?

@blooming_hopes I'm sorry, I somehow forgot to to tag you 🙈 Thanks to you, too of course! 🙂 The flowers seem to be quite big, I can only imagine how lovely the smell must be 😊
