Dear All
The plant is *E. corrigioloides *Boiss. , common in coastal areas on sandy
soil in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. It
is related to and similar to *E. rosea* Retz., but can be distinguished by
the limbs of glands which are of the same size in contrast to the two sizes
in *E. rosea*. Further, *E. corrigioloides* possess reddish a blotch on the
upper surface at the middle of leaves, which are absent in *E. rosea.* The
branching pattern is also different. In *E. corrigioloides* several
branches arise from rootstock, which do not show much branching above.
Whereas in *E. rosea* the rootstock produces only one stem, which
repeatedly branches dichotomously above.
So you can be sure that your plant is *E. corrigioloides* L.
