Remarks. 
flowers appear 
together in 
March. 
Acacia Suma , Kurz ; Peradeniya. 
This tree is not very vigorous, and the recorded periodicity 
may be slightly different from that of a tree in a healthy 
state. 
From 1901 to 1904 the leaves have become discoloured 
and commenced to fall during November in each year, and 
the tree is nearly leafless during February to April and 
regains its full foliage in May.
