A wild plant found growing on a Cluster Fig tree in Khandala on 24/3/11.

The second image is cropped.

Plant was very tiny and difficult to focus so kindy bear with bad picture quality.

Aarti ji ... did you see it as a epiphyte ?
A wild guess: Schefflera elliptica ? My guess could be entirely wrong.

Regards.

On second thoughts, if a climber - the inflorescence reminds of some species of Vitaceae.

Dinesh ji,

After your clue, I checked for Vitaceae on flowersofindia.

You are right as this looks more like Cissus javana or 'Climbing Begonia'.

Since the Cluster Fig tree was on a steep slope, I couldn't get closer.

So it is possible that the climber was on the other side, with only flowers visible, making it give a feeling as if they were growing on the Cluster Fig tree itself.

Thanks for the clues.

Regards,

Aarti

May be Cissus repanda Vahl, but can not be confirmed without leaves.

Garg Ji,

I could locate a picture with a new leaf on the left side, below.

Hope it helps.

This looks more like Cissus javana, that I had suggested earlier.

Regards,

Aarti

No problem Saroj Ji.

You had suggested Cissus javana earlier.
