Manudev ji

I knew the name, but did not provide as the post was without any details. The plant grows commonly in wet places in Delhi. By providing names for posts with no details the number of people sending such photographs is increasing.

I would request members to please honour the comment made by the previous member, especially when he/she has asked the member to provide details. This is essential if we want to contribute in building a good database.

It is fine Manudev ji All of us have to contribute for positive developments on the group. In this case two us Vijayadas ji and me had asked for details. Some important information about the locality, altitude, habitat, habit (herb, shrub, tree, climber, etc.), size of leaves, size of flowers every member (without any knowledge of botany) can provide. Sizes often get mixed up when we have photographs with different magnification. I still remember, once I saw a close up of flower of Duranta which looked so big that I confused it for Thunburgia, whose flowers are much larger. Our moderators, especially Shrikant ji, have developed the format for ID after a lot of discussion. It is the duty of every member to see that it is implemented.

Yes Singhji,

So only I am also refraining from replying from those bleak posts. Soon they will understand the necessity of details.
