Comments :

The tree is very healthy with a vigourous and dense crown. In full leaf and flower in July. Normally a deciduous tree in extended dry season. The tree is double-stemmed at 1m above ground. Nominal GBH has been calculated by the 'foresters' method', i.e. girth calculated from total basal area being the sum of the basal areas of the two leaders at 1.4m high.
