Dear Dinesh ji,
Great work.
The Malayalam name is correct. 
ചുവന്ന chuvanna (reddish) can be simply (elide) says or written in case of a plant name as chonna ചൊന്ന, so it is  ചൊന്നാമരി chonnamari.
With regards, Sam.

I further digged into Hermann Gundert's "A Malayalam and English dictionary" and found:
ചൊന chona = red colour
അമരി amari = name for Indigofera tinctoria
Thus, chonnamari = ചൊന്നാമരി

Please validate.

Regards.
Dinesh

Please help me with the name chonnamari of Indigofera glandulosa J.C.Wendl., in Malayalam script.
I found the name in a reference that I had downloaded a long time ago - not able to find from where I had done that.

Regards.
