A reply: " Both A.cathartica and A.nerifolia look very similar but for the following characters which distinguish them. Please check the characters and decide your self. A. cathartica : A tropical twining vine with deeply veined, whorled leavesand large, trumpetshaped bright yellow flowers. A.nerifolia : A bush typically grows to 4-5 ft tall. It bears clusters of yellow, trumpet-shaped flowers with orange-red throat stripes. Flowers are bell-shaped with a golden yellow corolla, striped orange at the throat. Dr. Mahadeswara swamy"
