Bauhinia_variegata_flower.jpg We plant both these Bauhinia in Nepal, where they are used for fodder and human food also.

Greetings: I am glad to find this forum and interested in learning some of the trees of Pakistan to communicate with a tree planting effort based in Lahore. I hope someone can help identify the botanical names for the following trees:
Dhrake
Shahtoot
Sukhchan
Cheer thanks
