Talk:Bauhinia

Untitled

This is amazing tree. Easy to grow. Also as a bonsai (it was a surprise for me). I have in next to my house, that's why I have some seeds of this orchid tree. Let me know if you need. I live in Israel, but I guess it wouldn't be a problem to send worldwide.

Can anyone identify this?

Can anyone identify this flower? It's certainly some kind of bauhinia, and while I'm about 90% sure it's B. purpurea, I don't want to start using it on anything until it's positively identified. It was taken on 1 March on Lantau island, Hong Kong, if that helps narrow it down... — iridescent 19:05, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

I think that's an Azalea. It doesn't appear to be a Bauhinia at all. B. pupurea has entirely pink flowers without any white. CalamusFortis (talk) 17:43, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Huh... shows how much I know. Thanks! — iridescent 18:02, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Problematic pictures

The article includes two pictures which may be not quite right:

1. – purportedly of species †Bauhinia thonningii, which the article lists as a fossil; and
2. – of the species Phanera vahlii, which is not strictly speaking a "Bauhinia", but belongs to the sister genus Phanera.

Should they remain here? yoyo (talk) 09:08, 24 October 2017 (UTC)

You are right yoyo - moved to genus Phanera: also updated. I think it is difficult to keep track with the species list - so am moving old version below here - useful to have a record of the updates (I have only managed to do some of the other genera). Roy Bateman (talk) 03:29, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

P. thonningii is a synonym of Piliostigma thonningii. Roy Bateman (talk) 04:03, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

@Roy Bateman Thanks for acting on this. Yes indeed, how does one keep up with revisions in taxonomy! yoyo (talk) 05:11, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
