Nidhan ji ... your posted plant must be *G. celosioides* as per your ID. There are two earlier posts (unresolved) - discussing the closeness of these species: *G. celosioides* and *G. serrata*. Thought of putting the link to Flora Zambesiaca - with the hope to get some views and thoughts. Gurcharan ji's note in this post clarifies it. Many thanks Gurcharan ji. Regards. Dinesh
