Re: [efloraindia:98689] Podostemonaceae for ID: 04122011

[Vijayasankar]

Very nice picture, Shrikant ji.
Did you mean Dalzellia zeylanica? It does look like that. Lawia zeylanica
is an unresolved name at 'theplantlist'.
Surprisingly 'theplantlist' doesn't include Indotristicha tirunelveliana.

Perhaps number of leaflets, presence and location of gland/s and size of
pod should confirm conclusively. Other things especially stamens and ovary
do fit Senna hirsuta.

Thanks Vijaysankarji and Gurcharan Singh ji. I had arrived at this ID
but plants on efloraofindia labelled under this name do not tally with
this, however the link provided does fully agree. Leaflets were 6
pairs but ignored the gland. The pods were terete and densely silky.

Hi Friends

Attached is the image of grapes from my roof garden - Kolkata. The vine
fruits after 6/7 years. Before that only 1/2 bunches appeared for 2
consecutive years- then last 6/7 years there was nothing. Suddenly this
year I got 5 bunches.

Can any body suggest how to take care of this vine at this location - it is
not native to this place.

Thanks
Dalia

The fruit pulp is edible,tasty.

 Dear H S
 No one denies the fact that Senna surratensis is present in India
 The confusion has arisen because most books consider C. glauca as
 synonym of Senna surattensis, and leaflet number is written as 4-9 pair.
 Let us for a moment discard our fixed ideas and go to Flora of British
 India, which also had confusion about the synonymy but had two taxa in 
 mind"

 Cassia glauca:  tall tree, with 15-25 cm long leaves, 5-10 cm long
 (although leaflet number is not mentioned simply saying 16-18 in var.
 suffruticosa is more numerous means they are less than 16)

 Cassia glauca var. suffruticosa: leaflets 16-18, smaller more numerous,
 2.5-5 cm long; flowers and pod much smaller, pod not more than 10 cm long.

 Now compare this with Flora of China

 *Senna sulfurea*: leaflets 4-6 pairs, 4-10 cm long, ; leaves 15-30 cm
 long; pod 12-20 cm long,
 :
 *Senna surattensis:* Leaflets 6-9 pairs, 2-5 cm long; leaves 10-15 cm;
 pod 7-10 cm

 Now compare this with Flora of British India and decide. Flora of China
 describes both as shrubs or small trees, so does Handbook of Flora of
 Ceylone.

 We have to realise that there is confusion in literature and we will
 come out of it with careful analysis of facts and not what we think about
 the plant. My plant of Senna sulfurea is still labelled as S. surattensis,
 but we hve to accept facts as they emerge.

 I would be happy if you provide some concrete evidence to support if
 you think otherwise.

 And ye inspite of several confusions,The Plant list treats Cassia
 suffruticosa as synonym of S. surattensis and not S. sulfurea

 For once let us agree with Flora of China, a very recent Flora, forget
 every other thing and see where our specimens fit: Senna sulfurea or Senna
 surattensis.

 Usha  I do not think so.This has been taken a long time back.But i
 think HS could be right.If i remember right the label on the tree said
 Cassia nodosa- but again i'm not absolutely sure- hence i asked for
 ID.I have not come across any other tree of this species.
