Hi, I was given some plants recently. The previous owner only knows their Vietnamese names. Please let me know their equivalent English names if you know them.
1- Mai chieu thuy
2- Mai vang
3- Mai tu qui
Thanks heaps in advance

hey mate, some pics might help with the identifying process as we can match them to other trees aswell!

Here are some pics. The mai vang tree has no foliage now so I attached someone else's pics.

My dictionary says
Mai chieu thuy- Wrightia religiosa
Mai vang- Ochna integerrima
I am not sure your pictures agree with these names.

Thank you Jerry. They are right. I searched the net with those names and found matched pics. Also found Mai Tu Qui to be the mickey mouse plant.
