So, so, wonderful, Vijayasankar ji !!!
Great joy !! Thank you very much for this help.
I would like to go with the compact and easy to call - வெண்நீலக்குறிஞ்சி venneelakkurinji ... the pale blue or whitish blue karvi !!!

Regards.

Dear Dinesh ji,

Yes, but a slight variation, "vaana neelakkurinji" வான நீலக்குறிஞ்சி (sky blue karvi) would work. 
Another option can be "venneelakkurinji" வெண்நீலக்குறிஞ்சி meaning "bale blue or whitish blue karvi". 

Best,

Vijayasankar

Dear Vijayasankar ji,
Please check if name for Strobilanthes ixiocephala Benth. can be easily coined.
Coined English name  for this species.is sky blue karvy

We have a name: நீலக்குறிஞ்சி neelakurinji for Strobilanthes kunthiana (Nees) T.Anderson ex Benth.
Would a name வானம் நீலக்குறிஞ்சி vaanam neelakurinji sound funny OR would it be alright ?
Please ignore my request if it is cumbersome.

Regards.
Dinesh
