Looking again at pictures and having clicked a lot this year in California, I am convinced that this is not E. macrantha which is now considered as E. rubra var. macrantha. It is characterised by glandular viscid stems, pedicels and calyx (rather a key character), which is lacking in these photographs.

I think above plant should be Escallonia 'Apple Blossom' https://in.pinterest.com/pin/180918110009606146/ https://www.promessedefleurs.com/arbustes/arbustes-par-variete/escallonias/escallonia-apple-blossom-122726.html https://www.pepinieres-minier.fr/produit/escallonia-apple-blossom On Tuesday, March 22, 2011 at 8:00:02 PM UTC+5:30 tanaybose15 wrote: > Escallonia macrantha indeed > tanay > > On Tue, Mar 22, 2011 at 5:19 AM, Gurcharan Singh <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> I suppose Escallonia macrantha >> >> >> -- >> 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/ >> >> >> On Tue, Mar 22, 2011 at 5:02 PM, Muthu Karthick <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> Dear all, >>> Please help to id this shrub found planted at a Botanical Garden in >>> Kodaikanal, TN >>> >>> *Date/Time-* >>> >>> 06-11-2010 / 11:10 AM >>> >>> *Location- Place, Altitude, GP* >>> >>> ca.2200asl; Kodaikanal, TN >>> >>> *Habitat-** Garden**/ Urban/ Wild/ Type-* >>> >>> Bryant's park >>> >>> *Plant Habit-* >>> >>> shrub >>> >>> *Height/Length-* >>> >>> ca. 2 m >>> >>> *Leaves Type/ Shape/ Size-* >>> >>> c. 6 x 3 cm >>> >>> *Inflorescence Type/ Size-* >>> >>> terminal raceme >>> >>> *Flowers Size/ Colour/ Calyx/ Bracts-* >>> >>> pink; 1cm across; 2cm long >>> >>> *Fruits Type/ Shape/ Size Seeds- * >>> >>> *Other Information like Fragrance, Pollinator, Uses etc.- * >>> >>> -- >>> Muthu Karthick, N >>> Care Earth Trust >>> #15, second main road, >>> Thillai ganga nagar, >>> Chennai - 600 061 >>> Mob: 0091 96268 33911 >>> www.careearthtrust.org >>> >>> >> >> >> > > > -- > *Tanay Bose* > Research Assistant & Teaching Assistant. > Department of Botany. > University of British Columbia . > 3529-6270 University Blvd. > Vancouver, B.C.
