Shantanu ji, please comment whether this plant is indeed A. cathartica.
Me too just as Gurcharan ji, believe this plant to be the violet allamanda,  A. blanchetii (syn: A. violacea).

Not sure if the horticulturists have now brought up A. cathartica mimicking colour of A. blanchetii

Regards.

Hi Dinesh ji...
It can certainly be Allamanda blanchetii....
To be frank, I have limited knowledge about the scientific names of
plants, and i have just started to know about various species from
this eflora group.

I have learnt the name 'Allamanda cathartica' few days back from
wikipedia.
So i thought perhaps this one is a variety of the same species. I
should not have mentioned the improper name without being sure....

If Gurcharan Sir and you think its a separate species (A.
blanchetii)....then that identification is definitely correct.

regards
Shantanu : )
