[shrikant ingalhalikar]

Please note the difference in the staminal cup between this plant and
P. parvum (IDd recently in a post). This plant has a open larger cup
with bifid teeth between long stamens which places this as P.
triflorum. P. parvum has short, closed staminal cup and filaments are
barely longer than the cup. However I am not familiar with flora of
orissa to rule out any other species. Regards, Shrikant

Re: Fwd: [efloraofindia:74229] please id the plant of bauhinia

I too stand for B. malabarica.
Please taste the leaf and see whether it is sour in taste, though some
other Bauhinia leaves also taste sour, leaves of B. malabarica has a
"high degree" of sour taste compare to all other species. The
malayalam name for this species is Aarampuli (puli in Malayalam/Tamil
means 'sour).

Further, to confirm we need to have flowers!

Thanks all. That means I will now have to be careful for any plant that
looks similar to Dicliptera in appearance.

[efloraofindia:74274] Re: Fwd: Patri's for Lord Ganesha

[Chitralekha]

Here is my list of the 21 patris used in Ganesh puja. As Satish ji
mentioned there are variations not only in the sanskrit names of the
plants but also in the identification of the plants based on the
sanskrit names. However, all the plants are medicinally very
important.
1. Machi - Artemisia nilagirica, Asteraceae
2. Bhruhati - Solanum indicum, Solanaceae
3. Bilva - Aegle marmelos, Rutaceae
4. Durvayugma - Cyanodon dactylon, Poaceae
5. Dhatura - Datura metel/ D. stromonium, Solanaceae
6. Badari - Ziziphus mauritiana, Rhamnaceae
7. Apamarga - Achyranthes aspera, Amaranthaceae
8. Tulasi - Ocimum tenuiflorum, Lamiaceae
9. Vishnu kranta - Evolvulus alsinoides, Convolvulaceae
10. Dadima - Punica granatum, Punicaceae
11. Devadaru - Cedrus deodara, Pinaceae (Gymnosperm)
12. Maruvam /Marva - Origanum majorana/ O.vulgare, Lamiaceae
13. Sindhuvara - Vitex negundo, Verbenaceae
14 Jaji/Jati - Jasminum auriculatum, Oleaceae; some identify it as
Myristica fragrans (Jai), Myristicaceae
15. Shami - Prosopis cineraria, Mimosaceae
16. Ashwadha/ashvattha - Ficus religiosa, Moraceae
17. Arjuna - Terminalia arjuna, Combretaceae
18. Arka - Calotropis procera, Asclepiadaceae
19. Choota - Mangifera indica, Anacardiaceae
20. Karaveera - Nerium oleander/ Thevetia peruviana, Apocynaceae
21. Gandaki - Sterculia urens, Sterculiaceae
Four more names were added to the list in Bhavishya purana -
  Bringaraja -  Eclipta alba, Asteraceae
 Malati/madhavilata - Hiptage benghalensis, Malpighiaceae
 Ketaki -  Pandanus oderatissimus, Pandanaceae and
 Agasthya - Sesbania grandiflora, Papilionaceae
What puzzled me is the inclusion of a gymnosperm - devadaru (Cedrus)
in the list which is not easily available. But a search in the
internet yielded this information :
Forests full of Devadaru trees were the favorite abode or living place
of ancient Indian sages and their families who were devoted to Hindu
god Shiva. To please Lord Shiva, the sages used to perform very
difficult tapasya (meditation) in deodar forests. There is regular
mention of Darukavana, meaning a forest of deodars, as a sacred place
in the ancient Hindu epics and Shaivite texts.

Chitralekha

Re: [efloraofindia:74275] Re: Fwd: Patri's for Lord Ganesha

[prasanna gogate]

dear all
celastrus panicualatus is an excellent brain tonic. Lord Ganesh is god of
VIDYA therefore  in our region fruits are hanging over the head of ganesha.
oil of this species is the best brain tonic in Ayurveda. I think this is
excellent traditional method for plant conservation. thank you

[efloraofindia:74282] Dashapushpam

[Devi Nair]

The month of Karkkidakam has started today as per the Malayalam calendar.
This is the wettest month of the season and  the ten sacred flowers,
'Dashapushpam', are given a lot of importance in rituals.  This is because
it is also the season when a lot of illnesses surface due to the damp
weather.

Even though they are termed as flowers, in reality it is the whole plant and
the leaves that are medicinal. The flowers in most cases are small and
inconspicuous.

Many of these can also be used as pot herbs and added to batters or Dhals to
make healthy and tasty dishes. The leaves of of the Mukkutti are crushed and
the greenish black juice is used by the women to make a bindi during this
month. It is supposed to attract 'Shree' , prosperity.

I agree with Vijaysankar ji, the last picks  looks different, is there any 
chance of its beeing from different plant, though the leaves are extremely 
polymorphic in Solena amplexicaulis.
