Satish ji I think you missed the thread. It has travelled a long distance. Here it is

Garg ji, with persons like Satish Valke, Satish Phadke. Dinesh, Devendra, Tabish, Neil, Prashant, Swagat, Nayan, Pankaj, Rani, Yazdi, Thiru (and several others actively contributing in the group), who have such a keen eye, zeal to investigate and not take a names published in Floras foregranted, the group has a great future. We should not be surprised if the real face of Indian Flora has a changed look soon. Recent interactions on the group give a strong indication that probably Indian Flora is much more and different than what we know at present. Not to forget the inputs of our keen photographers in the group, with little or no training in the study of plants, supplying a wide array of beautiful photographs from different parts of India. Please keep up the spirit.

Gurcharan ji, you had rightly doubted about your plant being Dregea volubilis. Many thanks to you; an enlightening post. Please check Marsdenia tinacissima (syn. D. tinacissima) as pointed out by Satish ji. Regards.
