Dear Geeta, yes. we had identified it as Orthosiphon pallidus (O. thymiflorous ). it is abundant in Sanjay Gandhi National Park. However while going thr'o the book by Shrikant i found similar flowers (Vol II - page 384), from same Lamiaceae family, which resemble the pics i have uploaded ( e.g. the colour, the quadrangular stem with red tinge).
I am confused about the leaves. I therefore wish someone to differentiate bet. the two and explain. cheers, shubhada ________________________________ From: geeta arun <[email protected]> To: shubhada nikharge <[email protected]> Cc: indian tree pix <[email protected]> Sent: Thu, 8 October, 2009 11:37:58 PM Subject: [indiantreepix:20478] Re: Unid plant_SGNP_Sept 09_SSN 4 Dear Shubhada, It is Orthosiphon thymiflorous -- Family -- Fabaceae.
