Hi Ravi ji. I am not sure how other members will react to the website content but I will surely say that plant list is a nice well maintained website. The contributors to this website are regarded as one of the best in the world (e.g. Kew, Missouri Botanical Garden, NYBG e.tc.). Hence, this can be a reliable source to get your plant identified though nothing is flawless in the world. If you are in a process of research publication then it will be a great idea to recheck the identity of the plant from the description provided by the original author(s) which is also a reliable reference that can be cited.
