Thank you very much Mahadeswara Ji. Actually I didn't oppose the id, merely stated the fact! Flowering season as well as no. of nerves are often discussed in our group. Both are no doubt important points to identify a species. My view is one should not stress much on those two points, because, 1) to count no. of nerves one need to examine a number of mature leaves, say from the mid portion of a plant, 2) flowering season may vary to some extent to a wild species, much extent to a cultivated one.
Yes, I do agree with the id, I have already hinted that in my earlier reply! Thank you Regards On Sat, Apr 4, 2015 at 5:56 PM, J.M.
