Q:

Identify plant (tree)

I brought this plant from a local nursery (Jaipur, India), I put this in a big pot few weeks ago but this is growing really fast. I brought this of around 3 feet and now its around 6 feet. I would like to know name of this plant (looks like a tree now). If anybody know "hindi" name of this plant that would be great. 

A:

I believe that you most certainly have either a Ceiba or Bombax here. The leaves of several species of both genera are very similar and would most likely require a flower for positive ID.
Hindi Common names:
Bombax - शाल्मली Shalmali, सेमल Semal
Ceiba - Safed semal सफ़ेद सेमल
