Re: [efloraofindia:79963] Malvaceae week- Abutilon ranadei- PKA1
Beautiful . As my maiden surname is Ranade I was interested to know how this flower came to be known as *Abutilon ranadei * * * On the net I found this interesting info by you. Thanks Common name: Son Ghanta • Marathi: *सोनघंटा *Son Ghanta Botanical name: Abutilon ranadeiFamily: Malvaceae (Mallow family) Son Ghanta is one of the critically endangered plant species of the Western Ghats. It is endemic and restricted to four districts of Maharashtra State. This endangered species was named after N. B. Ranade who was the keeper of the Herbarium at the College of Science, Pune, who died of the plague in 1897. It is a shrub 3-5 ft tall characterized by 2 inch long bell-like hanging golden yellow flowers. The five petals are 4 cm long, orange yellow, veined with purple. Stamens are united at the base into a tube 2.5 cm long. Styles are 5, longer than the stamens. Alternately arranged leaves, 10-20 cm long, are heart-shaped, long-pointed, with toothed margins. Fruit is 2 cm long, hairy and ribbed. Flowering: January-February.

Process involves part of the twig growing larger longer cells so that pedicle of the flower can do a 180 degrees twist… Almost similar to the insectivorous plants’ trap closing mechanism….. Abroma augusta L. Syn : Ambroma augustum; Abroma augustum ( seems to be currently preferred name ) Abroma augusta L.

In the past not grown nor used in Gujarat… DON’T KNOW if currently its being grown all over India or not, what with rapid dissemination of Knowledge and gardening enthusiasts… It is also not mentioned by Shushruta or Charak…. Bapalal Vaidya says it grows in the NE Himalayan range and nearby states, and in the past was rarely seen in the western jungles. Taxon: Abroma augustum (L.) L. f.

But along a Bengal village by the Damodar river we found an old lady who said she had in the past used the root bark juice to induce miscarriage ( this is quite opposite to the effect of Thepesia populinea root bark paste effect... which says it helps women get pregnant, esp get a male child... curiouser and curiouser!!!) Come to think of it ... similar plant had been growing beyond the wall of students' garden at a Ayurvedic college... and the local young gardeners, very sheepishly asked us not to photograph it... there was so much else to learn that we did not pursue that tree... but I distinctly remember it had cotton pods.. round ones , just like this one...

Two main varieties… we are dealing with edible red fruits Rosselle : *H. sabdariffa *var. *sabdariffa* * * The plant I present here was in a pot of soil, about 5 feet tall, at the tail end of its life, all fruits were ripe and leaves were mostly gone … few flowers remained… flowers were deep red… about 5 inches across, 2.5 to 3 inches long at nite when closed. The fruits were 1 to 1.5 inches long and 07 to 0.8 inches at the widest, the thick calyx was about 2 mm thick, and sour. The dried stems of the plant at the end of its life were very difficult to cut, matter of fact long thin cuts were found on my palms afterward when I had tried having a tug of war with the stems…it was then that I discovered that the other variety was non edible and source of jute like fibre… oh sure, but this : H. sabdariffa var. sabdariffa was doing quite well for itself…. The fibres it had produced must have been quite strong too…. Our Hibscus sabdariffa var. sabdariffa is an interesting vegetable…. Its called Roselle… for the red colored fleshy calyx I guess… Striking red calyx covers the green fruit inside… the red covering is what is we are after… mucilaginous red gooey mass upon boiling becomes an appetizing jelly with addition of sugar and cinnamon…. In Bengal. In the west, we drink tea made of “Jamaican TEA” with Jamaican Rosselle, a red concoction rich in vitamin C…. add a handful in boiling water … turn off the heat, steep , add sugar, ice and enjoy a tall cool drink… In Australia an enterprising young group of people had turned their land to some exotic use… they used to put the whole red rosselle fruit in the wine bottles and /or syrup in such a way that they looked very beautiful at the bottom of the champagne glass when transferred from their bottle to the tall champagne glass… for a few years was very popular with Brides to be… Do not know if they are still in business. I have tried eating …cooked of course the green tiny fruit… but is totally blah and too mucilaginous for my taste… I do make the jelly every year now yum... Julia Morton has this to say about my plant: “The other distinct type of roselle, H. sabdariffa var. sabdariffa, embraces shorter, bushy forms which have been described as races: bhagalpuriensi, intermedius, albus, and ruber, all breeding true from seed. The first has green, red-streaked, inedible calyces; the second and third have yellow-green edible calyces and also yield fiber. We are dealing here primarily with the race ruber and its named cultivars with edible calyces; secondarily, the green-fruited strains which have similar uses and which may belong to race albus. “ So I guess my plant was the *ruber race* .

Two main varieties… we are dealing with edible red fruits Rosselle : *H. sabdariffa *var. *sabdariffa* * * The plant I present here was in a pot of soil, about 5 feet tall, at the tail end of its life, all fruits were ripe and leaves were mostly gone … few flowers remained… flowers were deep red… about 5 inches across, 2.5 to 3 inches long at nite when closed. The fruits were 1 to 1.5 inches long and 07 to 0.8 inches at the widest, the thick calyx was about 2 mm thick, and sour. The dried stems of the plant at the end of its life were very difficult to cut, matter of fact long thin cuts were found on my palms afterward when I had tried having a tug of war with the stems…it was then that I discovered that the other variety was non edible and source of jute like fibre… oh sure, but this : H. sabdariffa var. sabdariffa was doing quite well for itself…. The fibres it had produced must have been quite strong too…. Our Hibscus sabdariffa var. sabdariffa is an interesting vegetable…. Its called Roselle… for the red colored fleshy calyx I guess… Striking red calyx covers the green fruit inside… the red covering is what is we are after… mucilaginous red gooey mass upon boiling becomes an appetizing jelly with addition of sugar and cinnamon…. In Bengal. In the west, we drink tea made of “Jamaican TEA” with Jamaican Rosselle, a red concoction rich in vitamin C…. add a handful in boiling water … turn off the heat, steep , add sugar, ice and enjoy a tall cool drink… In Australia an enterprising young group of people had turned their land to some exotic use… they used to put the whole red rosselle fruit in the wine bottles and /or syrup in such a way that they looked very beautiful at the bottom of the champagne glass when transferred from their bottle to the tall champagne glass… for a few years was very popular with Brides to be… Do not know if they are still in business. I have tried eating …cooked of course the green tiny fruit… but is totally blah and too mucilaginous for my taste… I do make the jelly every year now yum... Julia Morton has this to say about my plant: “The other distinct type of roselle, H. sabdariffa var. sabdariffa, embraces shorter, bushy forms which have been described as races: bhagalpuriensi, intermedius, albus, and ruber, all breeding true from seed. The first has green, red-streaked, inedible calyces; the second and third have yellow-green edible calyces and also yield fiber. We are dealing here primarily with the race ruber and its named cultivars with edible calyces; secondarily, the green-fruited strains which have similar uses and which may belong to race albus. “ So I guess my plant was the *ruber race* .
