Garg ji, I did not understand your last response: Images can be seen at https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/337793443
What does it imply ? This is the URL to my observation. The links you have provided of Herbarium JCB and POWO do not have any illustration of buds, all of the images show inflorescence either in flowering or fruiting. I am not able to judge the shape of the buds in those images. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here is a link to see the images of *Strobocalyx arborea* so that we get a fair idea of leaves and buds of *Strobocalyx *spp. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=6681&preferred_place_id=6681&taxon_id=937241 *in budding stage*: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/28981451 https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/147003484 *just about to bloom*: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/202253782 Regards.
