Other trees in the Peradeniya district show a heavy fall 
of leaf during January and February and a leafless period 
during February and March. One tree, probably not in 
full vigour, was leafless during November, 1901, and 
continued to produce new leaves during December, 1901, and 
right on until May, 1902, and is probably nearing its last day.
