Thanks Dinesh! Not a common tree at all! It is up on the site now. On the web there seems to be disagreement on the current name. However, GRIN (http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/html/taxon.pl?315117) , which I consider more reliable source, says that the current name is Bauhinia thonningii.

Thank you very much, Tabish.

You are right.. indeed B. thonningii is the accepted name.

I wonder from where I got to consider it otherwise. I will make change in my Flickr notes.
