Apologies Gurcharan ji ... 1) I did not take effort to reach out to post 15320 of Garg ji 2) I have the bad habit of being hasty !!!
I misinterpreted the confusion ocurring due to similarity in the flowers rather than in their common names. Just as Gurcharan ji said: *Wrightia tinctoria* ///// Holarrhena pubescens (*H. antidysenterica*) *Hindi *मिठा इंद्रजव mitha indrajau ///// कडवा इंद्रजव karva indrajau here are few more names of these species to compare: dyeing rosebay ///// dysentery rosebay dyers's oleander ///// bitter oleander *Marathi* काळा कुडा kala kuda ///// पांढरा कुडा pandhra kuda Regards.
