Averrhoa carambola L. from Oxalidaceae (hope their is a typographical mistake in Neil Ji's recommended name) commonly known as STAR FRUIT
Tanay

[Dr K. Brijesh]

Averrhoa Carambola L. from Oxalidaceae is mentioned in our Ayurvedic
text Bhavaprakasha Nighantu [ 16th century A.D. ].

Sanskrit - कर्मरंगा, विशाल, बृहदम्ल, रुजाकर.

Kannada - ಧಾರೆಹುಳಿ [ Dhaarepuli or Dhaarehuli ].

It is cultivated for their fruits.

Fl: May - August.

Ripe fruits are used for the preparation of Jams and unripe fruits for
pickles.

Medicinal properties:

Ripe Fruits acts as Blood Purifier.

The Juice [ Sharbath ] prepared out of fruits is beneficial in Fever,
Bleeding Disorders and Thirst.

Regards

Dr K Brijesh

[Padmini Raghavan]

The unripe fruit is a good source of Vitamin C.

 

It is used to clean brass vessels.

 

I made some delicious wine with it in January 2009.

This year it has bourne fruit only now and not so abundantly either.

Yes Averrhora carambola. Ripe fruits taste good while eaten raw.

Hi, Chris ji,

Is it possible to identify this with these images ?

Thanks a lot, Chris ji.

No, not really identifiable.  The person posting doesn't know that for Selaginella you must have adult material, not babies like this - as you must see the strobili to see if the sporophylls are isomorphic or dimorphic.

The other thing is there is absolutely zero information concerning where it was from!!  Of course every post MUST say what State it is from as the north Indian flora is quite different from the south!  If someone posts without mentioning the Satet it is best not to even bother to post it on the website as it is a waste  of time.

   If I was absolutely forced to say something about it - without any diagnostic feature shown, nor where it was from - I suppose I might start looking around S. bisulcata or perhaps S. monospora from say Darjeeling orN.E. India somewhere. But it's pointless to make wild guesses.  The person needs to go back a bit later, find fertile material and post again, including the underside of the strobili reasonably close up.  

   At least the quality of the photo is good and clear and can be magnified, which is good.

  Is Yazdy a Chinese name?  Could you ask them at least where it was from?  It could be from the flora of outer-space as far as we know!

Chris Fraser-Jenkins.

P.S. in the last photo I think, just possibly, I might be seeing a second small species in addition, remeniscent of S. reticulata - but again unidentifiable as there is a large group of those species, differing from north to south - and I must see the median-leaves on the top clearly, and the strobili.

Thanks, Chris ji.

Most likely. However, Yazdi ji may confirm.

If from Kerala my wild guess was unwise! - and completely wrong!  Must be a baby something else - don't know what, yet?  Is it definitely Wynad/Kerala?

Incidentally, about that Selaginella, seeing as it is a south Indian one, I'd start looking in about the S. praetermissa, S. intermedia sort of area.  Even perhaps a baby inaequalifolia.   But first you have to wait a few months until it has grown full-size and developed its strobili  well - then try again.
