Pankj ji... I have the same kinda questions, so spent almost a day reading about these things in June or July when I first bought my plant.. which turns out to be Galphimia gracilis... not this plant here in this thread...
Dont know.. that 's why originally I had thought this was a galiphimia... Googling for Tristellateia australasiae... also brings up names like Galphimia vine, Thyrallis vine, vining golden shower... Univv mich has done some research and have a website and this pdf.. take a look: you can get to the website name from the pdf name... http://www.lsa.umich.edu/herb/malpigh/MALPpdf/C25-Galph.pdf The author states that Malphigia sa whole is very confusing... or some such words.. Take a look.. You being a taxonomist can educate me... Thanks in advance... Sorry more work for you inaddtion to your regular duties at the job...
