Came across this erect herb at Warora (near Nagpur). Looks like some Alysicarpus sp.?? Date/Time: 26-10-2008 / 12:15PM Location: Warora near Nagpur. Habitat: Wild Plant habit: Erect herb, Leaves: alternate, 2 to 4 cm Flowers red & yellow coloured on a spike approx 50cm long. Is it Alysicarpus vaginalis? it is Alysicarpus longifolia. Thanks ... The flower spike for bit longer (approx 0.5 m +) than what i had read about A. longifolia. Is it some variation? the flowering racemes are frequently even longer than that. the plant itself can attain a height of 0.5-2 meters depending upon the locality and availability of water. i had seen it attaining that height at Kalina univeristy-BKC campus at Mumbai. Alysicarpus longifolius is my view too. Flowers of Alysicarpus pubescens Mar. name Durangi shevara Photographed at Roha, Maharashtra I feel it is Alysicarpus longifolius & not Alysicarpus pubescens.

Frankly, it would be difficult for me to gauge the variety; you may please help me with it; it will be a great help. Another genus with beautiful flowers. More beautiful than your lens eye. Pods are very much needed to confirm the species as per the Keys. I can't say any more than this. But it does look A.longifolius to me
