SHRUB ID. .....29/10/2011.......S.S........2nd.: I would be very grateful if someone could id this beautiful shrub. Date/Time-................................................................5th April 2011. Location- Place, Altitude, GPS-....................................Kalimpong ridge. West Bengal Habitat-Garden/ Urban/ Wild/ Type-.............................Wild shrub, growing besides the road. Plant Habit- Tree/ Shrub/ Climber/ Herb-.....................Shrub Height/Length-............................................................Sorry cannot remember. Leaves Type/ Shape/ Size-..........................................See pic. Inflorescence Type/ Size-.............................................See pic. Flowers Size/ Colour/ Calyx/ Bracts-.............................See pic. This appears to be a member of Ericaceae. Sadly the genus is not familiar to me. The closest I know is Arbutus but the leaf shape seems wrong. Please check species of Vaccinium of Ericaceae family. Hmm! Interesting. Vaccinium I had not thought of. I am familiar with many Vacciniums and grow several sp. It is the leathery evergreen leaves,that appear to be in whorls up the twig that I am finding hard. I have found a link to a botanical drawing for Vaccinium vacciniaceum. Would you be kind enought to say if you think I have a match. http://www.tropicos.org/Image/73859 Further link for advice. Is this it? http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=3&taxon_id=200016729 I too used the same link to reach Vaccinium but it was difficult for me to run the key without the specimen. I think V.vacciniaceum is a certain choice. Please refer the following link as well (I am not sure about the authenticity of the site).
