Acanthaceae Fortnight : Crossandra nilotica For Validation : Jijamata Udyan,Mumbai : 26MAR15 : AK-10

[Aarti S. Khale]

Picture taken in Dec,2007 at Jijamata Udyan, Mumbai, during my earlier visits to the garden.

I feel this could be Crossandra nilotica, going through Neha Singh Ji's post.

Experts, kindly have a look and validate, although I don't have pictures of the leaves.

It is difficult to confirm in the absence of other details of the plant.

[surajit koley]

Please check bracts are pilose which differs the nilotica from infundibuliformis. C. nilotica Oliv. should be 1 ft high, with woody downy stem, pale pink or scarlet coloured flowers having the lower petal largest of all.

Thank you
