Gurcharan ji, thanx. i am sorry. I wrote 'herb' by mistake. It is a shrub. In Sanjay Gandhi National Park it has been used as a fence. I have also seen it growing like a small tree.
Thanx very much for the info on the family. Can u please explain the term - "dichasialcyme, and helicoidmonochasialcyme in the same plant"? cheers, shubhada ________________________________ From: Dr Gurcharan Singh <[email protected]> To: shubhada nikharge <[email protected]> Cc: indian tree pix <[email protected]> Sent: Mon, 5 October, 2009 1:17:10 AM Subject: [indiantreepix:20134] Re: Hameliapatens_Sept 09_SSN On Sun, Oct 4, 2009 at 11:37 AM, shubhada nikharge <[email protected]> wrote: Hi, >posted a pic of Hameliapatens - a small herb, garden plant. >cheers, >shubhada > >________________________________ Add whatever you love to the Yahoo!
