Is this the same as this flower I saw growing in a vacant plot in Bangalore? However, this one was a creeper.

Please confirm.

Thanks,

Padmini Raghavan.

No Padmini ji

The plant I have posted is having Puplish colour in the Stem (Completely) and leaves (in leaf veins) and dense prickles in the stem. The leaves are smooth and tomentose in the upper surface and rough in the lower surface. and the lower portion of the stem is erect (Sub- erect).

I think this is Ipomoea muricata, which has purplish stem covered with
prickles
http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Purple%20Moonflower.html
Probably the current name is Ipomoea capillacea - have to check that
out.
Cheers!

Sorry I missed your earlier reply. My reply was to negate this plant being I. indica. Yes both flowers and leaves match I. parasitica.

I too failed to see Ron's suggestion of Ipomoea parasitica. Blue
flowers with a yellow center agrees well with Ipomoea parasitica. And
reddish stems with rough projections too. Looks like Ipomoea
parasitica has not been considered in India, being a non-native plant.
It seems to have naturalized here. Makes me wonder if the flower
displayed as Ipomoea turbinata in Flowers of Sahyadri, could actually
be Ipomoea parasitica... just thinking aloud.

Hello everyone,

The photos that I have linked to in the PlantFiles at
Davesgarden (please have a look at them) show the details that I
thought were important enough to enable the differentiation from
I.muricata

Ipomoea muricata is commonly confused with Ipomoea parasitica as both
have very similar corolla shape ,spiny stems and reflexed fruit but
the corolla coloration for Ipomoea parasitica is decidedly different ,
especially if you have the opportunity to have examined living
specimens of both species.
The outer sepals of Ipomoea muricata project outward horizontally at
the tips but the sepals of Ipomoea parasitica do not...

Here are some additional relevant links to nomenclature and structural
features

Ipomoea muricata synonymy causes confusion with Ipomoea capillacea as
a synonym and as a legitimate different species

Hello,

Yes, Ipomoea perlonga is a synonym of Ipomoea parasitica,

The photos of Ipomoea parasitica in the PlantFiles are all from my
private germplasm collection and were photographed with a particular
view to clarify and document the important details for IDentifying
ipomoea parasitica.

I hope they may ultimately prove to be useful.

There are many species that originated in the New World which have
naturalized in the Old World and vice-verse...so , it is important
that non-native species be considered when IDentifying anything
growing in a tropical or semi-tropical area as these type of climatic
environments are conducive to very many species to thrive within ..

I am personally more familiar with the characteristics of those
species that originated and occur on my side of the 'pond' but share
what i may have to offer on Old World species as well...

Thanks for your question(s)

regards,

Ron

[Parjanya guru]

Thanks Ron for a deatiled view on the subject..

 Let me share a storey on the same..

I have a paper of Dr.S. D. Biju reporting I. prlonga  first time for India (RHEEDEA). At the same time, I believe, there's another paper by Father Santapau on the record of  I. parasitica  from India for first time.

I wonder which could be the valid publication recording  this plant's  occurance FIRST in India.???

:)

Parjanya ji,

I haven't easy access to the papers that you mentioned and am
unable to shed any additional light on your questions regarding these
precedence of the material in the publications you
mentioned ....perhaps some of the others may be able to clarify,

regards,

Ron

Ipomoea muricata (L.) Jacq. looks good.Ipomoea muricata

Excerpt from FoI :Ipomoea muricata (L.) Jacq. - Stems are herbaceous and rough due to the presence of many minute speculate protuberances growing from the epidermis.

                               :Ipomoea parasitica (Kunth) G.Don - Stems are trailing for several metres and climbing over low bushes, reddish, muriculate, hairless or velvety.

Thank you

Saroj Kasaju

I think more closer to Ipomoea parasitica  as per images herein.
