Thanks, Sir ji, it was more of my learning process than to establish any identification of relevant threads!
And, imagine, just now what I have found out !!! - *A few words extracted from an account of Leea sambucina Willd., *in the "FLORA OF TROPICAL AFRICA, Vol-I, 1868". "A suberrect woody shrub about 8 ft high, .......... Corolla oblong, 1/8 in. deep, glabrous, *bright red on the outside, yellow within or entirely orange.* ......." *In the "paper", I am following, it was referred to as L. sambucina auct. non.Wild.. ...... Baker in Fl. Tr. Afr. I (1868) ...", under L. guineensis G. Don.!* Thank you. Best regards, Surajit Koley On Sun, 9 May 2021 at 22:08, J.M.
