A reply:

"In A. longifolius inflorescence a dense spicate raceme, 15-30cm long; in images inflorescence is lax. In A. heterophyllus leaves are always uni-tri foliate as name predicts heterophyllus. Therefore, chances of A. vaginalis are high; leaves simple, elliptic lanceolate, oblong or linear oblong, cordate at base, 0.5-8.0 x 0.5-3.0cm, Raceme 5.0-8.0cm long. 

The major difference in A. vaginalis and A. longifolius are pod symmetry and constrictions in between.

Kind regards,

Varun"

Thanks, Varun ji.

A. longifilius has terminal racemes up 30 cm with shiny primary bracts
