current pictures are very different from the Foi pictures also by Prashant Awale, also validated then by Mayur.
so if petals have fallen off in that picture , then from my viewpoint its past the prime yet the filamentous stamen hairs are "fresh" and vibrant. in present case the petals are intact,. now i am confused about the the subtending cradle, that looks more like tradescantia, and the foi pictures do not show any flower petals, So Mayur, much variation can occur in this species???. thanks in advance for telling us. usha di On Mon, Oct 1, 2018 at 7:06 PM mayur nandikar <[email protected]> wrote: > Appears to be Cyanotis pillosa to me!! > > On Mon, Oct 1, 2018, 6:56 PM J.M.
