Surajit ji
At the begining of this week I had thought that perhaps we will be able to
hunt out O. stricta. In fact at one stage I thought I had found one, but
then I had to give up, because I was not satisfied. That is why I had
withheld my upload of Oxalis corniculata, it was my last post today in
frustration.
