Hi,

It looks like Murdannia wightii to me. Sending a few of my photographs. They were taken at my farm at Shahapur.

With regards,

Neil Soares.

To all

This is Murdannia semiteres for sure. M. wightii is synonym for M. pauciflora and one more thing to add Murdannia semiteres and M. pauciflora are different species from each other one is having terminal, purple flowers in panicle while other is with axillary, yellow flowers

Thank you.
