2011-08-17 Thread Tanay Bose
This is Passiflora for sure but not sure whether is is P. foetida.
because the later is known to have a foetid (bad) smell. So one
needs to check the smell of the fruits. But the leaves surely
looks like P foetida.
The hairy thing around the fruit is not calyx but bract.

2011-08-17 Thread Satish Phadke
This question was actually for Usha di
Now I understood after Gurcharanji's reply.
The common name Japanese maple includes at least two botanically named
species
*Acer japonicum* and *Acer palmatum* which again has 3 recognized subspecies
and many cultivars(Wikipedia)

   - *Acer palmatum* subsp. *palmatum*. Leaves small, 4–7 cm wide, with five
   or seven lobes and double-serrate margins; seed wings 10–15 mm. Lower
   altitudes throughout central and southern Japan (not Hokkaido).
   - *Acer palmatum* subsp. *amoenum* (Carrière) H.Hara. Leaves larger,
   6–12 cm wide, with seven or nine lobes and single-serrate margins; seed
   wings 20–25 mm. Higher altitudes throughout Japan and South Korea.
   - *Acer palmatum* subsp. *matsumurae* Koidz. Leaves larger, 6–12 cm wide,
   with seven (rarely five or nine) lobes and double-serrate margins; seed
   wings 15–25 mm. Higher altitudes throughout Japan

Hi Shriharsha Ji,
I don't disbelieve you identification you can be very true in all aspect.
Fruits in different species of Asisaema looks so close that its hard
to distinguish (at least for me) hence I always look for flowers and

Passiflora foetida for sure.
Another high value medicinal plant.
If someone wants to work on this, I can give one idea that this plant
to me seems to have some trapping mechanism for insects and hence an
insectivorous plant. In the morning you can see some tiny insects
stuck to its glandular hairs.
Those who want to work may check the chemical constituent of the
liquid on the glandular hairs. If it has anything like chitinase then
for sure this is insectivorous.

Respected Sir,
I am a bit confused how come both of your names are synonyms of
Ceropegia lawii.

Ceropegia lawii
Ceropegia sahyadrica
Ceropegia rollae
are for sure three distinct species!!

I will request Sid to share his article:
