Thanks Great help from Vivek Ji and Carmelita Ji 🙏
Did not notice tendrils with disc at apex. In first photo tendril is
not very branched and seems curled at apex. In case next time see a
climber, will picture tendril specially.
Tried to match margin of leaflets of Parthenocissus quinquefolia and
Parthenocissus inserta. Both species as per wiki photos has very prominent
teeth while the plant i spotted does not have such prominent teeth on
margin. Can we ignore this teeth difference? If we ignore margin, can we
consider it as Parthenocissus inserta?. This remind me spotting such
climbers many years ago in Nasik district and North Maharashtra, but did
not notice disc at tendril apex, marginal teeth were not such prominent,
also fruits noticed were brown and not blue.
Thanks
Sharmila
