Thanks Vijayasankar ji for this excellent poster This makes us wake up to re-examin our specimens we conveniently refer to P. fraternus (if perianth are 6) or P. amarus (if perianth are five). P. amarus is not common in Delhi atleast. Observing more critically I found large oval leaved plants in May June but much narrower and smaller leaved in September-October, growing at the same place. I thought them to be seasonal affect on P. fraternus. Now I feel, seeing your images, that after all our plant may not be P. fraternus, and plant growing in September-October may turn out to be different species. I will examine these critically and report back soon.
