Fuchsia is of course correct, named after famous Germam Herbalist William Fuchs For other spellings see below (from Wikipedia) Pronunciation and Spelling While the original pronunciation from the word's German origin is * fook-sya* /ˈfʊksja/, most English speakers tend to say *fyusha* /ˈfjuːʃə/.

Re: [efloraofindia:68285] Tinospora cordifolia (Willd.) Miers from my house Panipat
Perhaps it would be interesting to know whether the two names are synonyms or not: None of the three reputed databases Kew Plant List, GRIN (although has limited scope) and Sorting plant names, treats them as synonyms. Perhaps a detailed perusal of paper (Merrill--- J.

Re: [efloraofindia:68289] tree for id
Thanks HS. Would like to know on what basis you have arrived at this conclusion. Have both species of these trees at my farm at Shahapur. Have also in the past had a detailed discussion with Dr. Almeida on this topic. As seen in the photographs most of the leaves are fresh. In Bridelia spinosa the leaves are more elliptic with an acute tip whereas in Bridelia squamosa the leaves are broader and more oval in shape with older leaves tending to loose chlorophyll and developing spots because of a fungal attack. Also it would be nice if you would disclose your identity and credentials.

Ajinkya ji Milletia pinnata and Pongamia pinnata refer to the same plant. They are synonyms.

This is Aerides odorata. As the name suggests it is very fragrant with lemon + vanilla + rose smell. This had conical spur which is curved forward. In R. retusa, the spur is inflated and there are of course spots on petals and sepals. Leaves of these never turn red like R. retusa and retusa also has retuse lip apex this has bilobed.
