Carmelita Ji,
I gave the id as Ruellia colorata based on the id given on their Planthotline.
I believe Ruellia colorata is a Syn of Ruellia chartacea or vice a versa.
Please correct me if wrong.


Regards,
Aarti

Thank you. Yes, you are correct that Ruellia colorata is a synonym for R. chartacea. Unfortunately, R. colorata is also a syn. for Hemigraphis alternata/H. colorata which has now been changed to Strobilanthes alternata. Oh, how the accepted names keep changing!!

In fact, there are four Ruellia colorata from four different authors and each of them is a syn. of some accepted species as per Catalogue of Life.
I think Aarti ji is talking of Ruellia colorata Baill., which is a syn. of Ruellia chartacea (T. Anders.) D.C. Wassh.

Garg Ji,
Yes.
I was surprised to see it in Flowersofindia also.
