sorry to say but i dont rely on his identification since he give further refrences of some photographic books,,, that makes us understand from where he has checked his photos or confirmed with... no doubt that the quality of photos are quite good.. but identification of western Indian plant are not 100 percent.. so how can one reliable on his id..
and I still dont agree with H. vitifolius, since iut shows angular capsule.. which is the character of Kosteletzia.. and coming to Cassia, that plant is surely not C. absus which people have concluded.. I believe in Original local work instead of following Western World people... regards, On Thu, Oct 13, 2011 at 6:22 AM, Gurcharan Singh <[email protected]> wrote: > I think it is the problem of the person who has doubts, and should find the > solution, rather than forcing/asking the person who is sure about > identification to provide him information. > > I did do the investigation when doubts were created about Hibiscus > vitifolius, Casia uniflora.
