Basella sp from near Bhaini Village Karnal

[Balkar Singh]

Dear All

Basella sp from near Bhaini Village Karnal

This Basella looks me like B alba

But some imp differences observed were in comparision of commonly grownig garden variety of B alba 

1. More spreading with thin stem

2. Leaves were less leathery.

pls clarify

Thanks

Basella alba and B. rubra are same and synonyms with B. alba as
accepted name.
I think this is B. alba, just that its growing in harsh conditions.

Pankaj ji to check this I grow this vine in good condition in my college but still clearly different from commonly growing B alba

You may be right Balkar sir.
But what is good according to your may not be good according to the plant.
