Dear All, *Blumea lacera [Asteraceae]...* I am confident on Gurcharan Ji's ID and previously I attached a photo where I tried to indicated the charactes of the plant which is evident from the photo. Plant doesn't look like *B lacera* commonly seen in Kolktata but still has all the characters of the plant. I have seen this plant very closely as i used its extract to contol microbes. It has a good potential to control bacteria. regards Tanay On Sat, Mar 20, 2010 at 9:26 AM, J.M. Garg <[email protected]> wrote:
