Grargji this is Catesbaea spinosa of Rubiaceae .... but as usual incomplete case ???thorns??? most likely large ones any fruits??? may be green turning yellow, oval.... entire plant pictures??
after the wonderment at this almost square like flower (Christs' cross was my first impression when i saw it first twenty years ago or so) wears off the thorns' presence is second wonder... why would a lowly plant like this have such large thorns??/ when there is something exotic like this... stay a moment and take in the whole plant....if one loves botany...Thats what Mark Catesby did in Nassau who discovered this plant ... the plant gets it name after him...and generations of gardeners perfected the system in England with painstaking details to produce the flowers that were painted and that's what we find in world literature... that kind of ove for botany. never ceases to amaze me and make me feel grateful to the creator and the men and women who discovered these in centuries past... Gardeners in England who with great eye at details nurtured it/them so we can see and have them now across the seas and centuries. being at Lalbagh i wonder if TIpu Sultan had it brought over since he was known to have brought in many many plants and trees saplings from all the well known botanical gardens of the world. usha di On Fri, Apr 15, 2016 at 2:47 PM, J.M.
