Dear All, I support the comparative account of the both plants i.e. *F religiosa* and *F arnottiana* as provided by Gurcharan ji. I get the chance to see both the plants every day , as it's present in our colony. But more happy to know that my ID was right .... really the plants in my colony taught me lesson!!! Regards Tanay
