Bauhinia acuminata

Bauhinia acuminata is a species of flowering shrub native to tropical southeastern Asia. Common names include dwarf white bauhinia, white orchid-tree and snowy orchid-tree. The exact native range is obscure due to extensive cultivation, but probably from Myanmar (Burma), Malaysia, Indonesia (Java, Borneo, Kalimantan, Lesser Sunda Islands), and the Philippines.
It grows two to three meters tall. Like the other "Bauhinia" species, the leaves are bilobed, shaped like an ox hoof; they are long and broad, with the apical cleft up to deep; the petiole is long. The flowers are fragrant, in diameter, with five white petals, ten yellow-tipped stamens and a green stigma. The fruit is a pod long and broad. The species occurs in deciduous forests and scrub.
It is widely cultivated throughout the tropics as an ornamental plant. It may be found as an escape from cultivation in some areas, and has become naturalised on the Cape York Peninsula, Australia.
It is also used in many culinary dishes of Odisha
