Dear Satish ji, Cleome gynandra is a naturalized species and rarely planted in India (as far as i know). Plants are covered with glandular hairs and the leaflets are inverted egg-shaped. Androphores are well developed in flowers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleome_gynandra and there may be several other differences. http://hpb.narod.ru/adyar/cleome_gynandra-fl-1.jpg Whereas,
Cleome hassleriana is always planted in Indian gardens and rarely seen in natural habitats. Plants without glandular hairs and the leaflets are oval-shaped. Only gynophore is present and androphores not developed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleome_hassleriana On Sat, Apr 24, 2010 at 9:43 AM, Satish Phadke <[email protected]>wrote: > Now will you please tell others the difference between the two species. > Thanks > Dr Phadke > > > On 24 April 2010 09:02, tanay bose <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Thank you Vijayasankar Ji I made a mistake to identify it because I became >> to overconfident of it being *G gynandra* .
