Many many thanks Gurcharan ji, The crowd of plants confused me, not you !!!
So, there are indeed two plants that I have mixed up !! *Rumex dentatus* and *Chenopodium ambrosioides* ... and on checking out how they look like at FOI and elsewhere on the internet, they both look confusingly alike to me at this moment. Would conclude that all the photos are of *Rumex dentatus, *except for second, which shows *Chenopodium ambrosioides. * Regards. * * On Mon, Sep 6, 2010 at 9:07 AM, Gurcharan Singh <[email protected]> wrote: > Dinesh ji > Second photograph is Chenopodium ambrosoides and some plants of Bidens > pilosa > > > -- > Dr. Gurcharan Singh > Retired Associate Professor > SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 > Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018. > Phone: 011-25518297 Mob: 9810359089 > http://people.du.ac.in/~singhg45/ <http://people.du.ac.in/%7Esinghg45/> > > On Sun, Sep 5, 2010 at 8:32 PM, Dinesh Valke <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Gurcharan ji, ... there is a melee of plants at the spot !! and therefore >> so many photos ... do you think two different plants are getting into focus >> ? >> >> The plant in focus in photo # 2 ...
