hello, I am way too much confused; the plant being referred in Ayurveda as Shankapushpa/Shankpushpi belong to one species of more? Is it *Convolvulus pluricaulis*, with its round flowers, or *Clitoria ternatea*. with its conch shaped flowers? Both could be white or blue. "Shanka"=conch, so C. ternatea seems to me a better bet. Some say right species is Canscora decussata, or even Evolvulus alsinoides?
I would be obliged if someone can provide correct species name, with ID features and description.
