EUPHORBIACEAE FORTNIGHT:: Acalypha reptans? from Panipat NS-33 : Attachments (3). 4 posts by 3 authors. Please get the id verified and let me know if this can be Acalypha reptans or A. hispida.... This species commonly cultivated is Acalypha chamaedrifolia (Lam.) Müll.Arg. (Basionym: Croton chamaedrifolius Lam.;Synonym: Acalypha reptans Sw.) I think this has to be Acalypha hispida only unless the plant is a smaller or dwarf variety which is known by the name A.chamaedrifolia or A. reptans References:
