Dear sir, Thank you so much for the identification. I immediately searched for Senna sophera on google after seeing your message.
I have one small doubt, I just read on the net that this herb bears a round gland above the base of the petiole. I am confused because the herb that I saw does not bear any gland anywhere on the leaf stalk. Is this a very important feature in the identification of this herb?
