This seems to be Aeschynomene indica L., growing in a ditch.
Can this not be a Sesbania??
Without pod it's hard for me to tell if it can be Sesbania or Aeschynomene. Of the five species of Sesbania in eFI, i think this is none of them. Moreover, leaves & leaflets are much smaller in this plant than any Sesbania known to me (3 species). I am not sure if it can be a sixth species of Sesbania.
This is not -
  • Sesbania aegyptiaca Pers. or its varieties [ syn. S. sesban (L). Merr.] = a small tree, leaflets 20 pairs max. (25 pairs FoP)
  • S. paludosa Prain. [ syn. S. javanica Miq.] = a tall marsh plant with tree like stems; leaflets 1" or more long
  • S. cannabina Pers. = annual, very tall slender stem, leaflets 1" or longer; corolla banner/standard purple dotted on outside
  • S. aculeata Pers. = prickly undershrub; red/violet dotted standard
  • S. uliginosa Sweet = I am not sure about it; FI informs keel purple
  • S. grandiflora Pers. - tree, flowers big
"Bengal Plants" do not have any more Sesbania.
You must have received the last mail I have sent you minutes ago. I drafted that mail about a fortnight ago, but i didn't send.
May i ask you How or Why did you suspect that this species in this thread could be Sesbania?
I am attaching update today. It is not Aeschynomene indica L.
I think it is Aeschynomene uliginosa Roxb., the current accepted name of which is Sesbania uliginosa Sweet, as per The Plant List.
