The leaf surface of Cardiospermum canescens (syn. C. corindum) is densely hairy in respect to C. halicacabum. Leaf shape is also different. Fruit shape is elliptic and long in C. canescens in respect to C. halicacabum, where the fruit is globose or broadly pyriform
.
As per efi thread :
Only two species of Cardiospermum are known in India and differentiated as:
Capsules pyriform, winged at the angles; seeds with large heart shaped hilum………………..C.helicacabum
Capsules subglobose, ovate when young, not winged; seeds with small orbicular hilum ……C. canescens
based on Pant (2000) in Flora of India vol-5 page 355.
.

Every village woman in Tamil Nadu knows that the leaves of this wild creeper are used to give relief in arthritis.
I believe it is also used as a shampoo.
(Maybe the men too know this, but I deal mainly with women!)

a very common tree in Bengal too…. !! All Sapindaceae member I hope has such frothing property as you have said.


Tree????? …, I will love to see its tree version. It is Balloon Vine. 😉


Thank you very Much … for pointing out my mistake it a herbaceous climber not a tree !!

Creeper for ID : 231210 : AK-1:
Taken by the roadside growing wild on the 16th of November, 2010 at
Kandy, Sri Lanka.
Sorry for the bad quality of pictures as taken in a hurry. The flowers resembled that of Potato Vine. But have not seen such fruits on Potato Vine before. Is it some Solanum?

-This is Cardiospermum halicacabum indeed, I suppose the name Cardiospermum have been derived from heart- shaped scar on the seeds.

Fruits & Vegetables Week: RVS-12:
Leaves of Cardiospermum halicacabum is used as vegetable. This is from FRLHT campus, too.


-This too is a wasteland weed i didnt knew it has food value


It is very popularly known for its use against joint pains. And it can be conveniently used as food & medicine.


-didn’t know that it was a considered a weed. Because here it is sold in our markets. People with arthritis complaints use it. Called ‘mudakkathaan’ in Tamil.

The herbaceous vine often cultivated for its attractive balloon shaped fruits.
Photographed from Haiderpur colony, Srinagar, Kashmir

I have seen them in florist shops in  Vancouver. They call them halloween lantern !!

I had seen this attractive baloonvine some years back in my neighbours garden. I remember that it is a very fast growing vine and spreads rapidly.


Informative pictorial compilation of flowers, fruits as well as the entire habitat.
Have seen it twinning around some of the bigger plants in the forest area of Pavagadh, Gujarat


… do they last till Halloween? strange , it would be… up north… “Balloon vine” was  on my seed label …


In herbal medicine gardens… I have seen a small/tiny seeded and a very large seeded variety..

Cardiospermum corindum L.

near Kumta on 17 MAR 13


Why not C. halicacabum?


Cardiospermum halicacabum


Thanks … for validating the ID. Thanks … for affirming the ID.
Would like to know if there is some clear indicator in the photos which suggests the ID as C. halicacabum ?

Referring to notes in Flowers of India, Small Balloon Vine … Leaves are biternate – trifoliate with the leaflets divided again into 3 leaflets. The lateral divisions may sometimes be reduced so that they appear like pinnae. Leaflets are ovate, deeply cut, the color a duller green and the texture firmer than in the others, and especially the lower surface always downy, with the main veins a little raised. The terminal leaflets easily distinguishes this plant from Balloon Vine. In Balloon Vine, the terminal leaflet is ovate, with a broad base and narrow tip – in Small Balloon Vine, the terminal leaflet has a narrow tapering base.


There is a key in the BSI book, posted by … at efi thread

In that key, the distinguishing characters are winged nature of fruit and the shape of hilum in seeds.. Possibly the leaf character MAY not stand very distinct often.
Now the question is- a narrow ridge seen on the angle of the fruits posted by …- shall we consider them as “wing” ?

I am yet to see a picture of C. corindum fruit (which lacks the wings), unfortunately its not seen in Flowers of India, Small Balloon Vine .


Thanks very much … for the clarifications and thoughts. Hopefully someday we get to see pictures of fruits of both species to understand the difference.


The leaf of both the species are different in their surface. The leaf surface of Cardiospermum canescens (syn. C. corindum) is densely hairy in respect to C. halicacabum. Leaf shape is also different. The picture has given this link http://www.flowersofindia.SmallBalloonVine.html as C. corindum (syn. C. canescens) is not C. corindum. It is C. halicacabum also. Fruit shape is elliptic and long in C. canescens in respect to C. halicacabum, where the fruit is globose or broadly pyriform. I am sending herewith a portion of herbarium picture of C. canescens.


Thank you very very much … for the efforts and validation of the ID. I will correct my notes at flickr.


I am sending herewith two pictures having fruits and flowers of Cardiospermum canescens. I have collected it from Maruthamalai, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu during May- Aug, 2009. There is difference in leaf and fruit with reference to Cardiospermum halicacabum.


I have also collected the same species from same area during November 2011

Pls go through the attachment.


Thank you very much … and many thanks … for these pictures; very helpful for getting clear idea to differentiate the two species.


Glad that I could see both..
Thanks to … and … for sharing the photographs..
And..Dinesh jee, your post initiated the discussion to resolve another taxonomic mystery for me..Thanks !
Shall we conclude by naming your plant as Cardiospermum halicacabum L. ?

…, yes indeed Cardiospermum halicacabum L. … I will correcting my notes at flickr at earliest.

This particular plant was spotted at North Karnataka.
I think Cardiospermum corindum ??

I think it should be Cardiospermum halicacabum in view of discussions in another thread.


Yes … Cardiospermum halicacabum as pointed out in my post … this is the same sighting, me and … were together.

Cardiospermum halicacabum : 2 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (2)
Sharing some pictures of C. halicacabum shot at Nuwakot Nepal on 26 April 2015 at 3200 ft !


Oh! What a beauty!


.


Why would the plant Cardiospermum halicacabum gain this name as blister creeper ?
Other than a small mention in book Florida Ethnobotany by Daniel F. Austin, about plant containing irritating chemicals, could not find any more reasoning given anywhere else.

While compiling names for this plant, found that the plant is of highly medicinal – used in treating / curing boils, blisters, cysts, tumours, thus could be the name blister creeper.

Kindly identify this plant.

Cardiospermum halicacabum


Cardiospermum species.

Check for C.grandiflorum as well by comparing vegetative and floral characters and decide yourself

I also agree with … It is Cardiospermum halicacabum L.
Where was it taken?

.


Please help me with the name karotio for the balloon vine, Cardiospermum halicacabum in native script.
Reference: Indigenous Drugs Of India by Chopra R N, I.C. Chopra

Post got inadvertently sent.
More follows:
Please validate the names put here – બોધ bodha, કપાલફોડી kapaalphodi, શિવજાલ shivajaal
Reference: Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeial Plant Drugs: Expanded Therapeutics by C P Khare


Bodha and Kapalphodi both are used


Bodha and Kapalphodi both are used for Cardiospermum halicacabum


the Cardiospermum halicacabum is called as Nayphataki, Lataphataki, Latphatkari, Kagdoliyo, Karoliyo, Kapalfodi, Bodh. Actually it is discussed as Karnasfota, Kakamardanika in ayurvedic texts.


Thanks … for the two names – bodha and kapalphodi. I will soon add them to the Sanskrit page in the site.

Thanks …
karnasfota is already entered. I will add kakamardanika soon to the Sanskrit page.

Since these two are the most appropriate names, I will bolden them to stand out among the rest.
अनल anala, अनलप्रभा analaprabha, बहुरसा bahurasa, दीप्त dipta, गीर्लता girlata, इन्द्रवल्ली indravalli, ज्योतिर्लता jyotirlata, ज्योतिष्का jyotiska, कैडर्य kaidarya, कनकप्रभा kanakaprabha, कर्णस्फोटा karnasphota, कटभी katabhi, कुकुन्दनी kukundani, लगणा lagana, लता lata, लतापुटकी lataputaki, लवण lavana, लवणकिंशुका lavanakimshuka, मतिदा matida, नगणा nagana, निफला niphala, पण्या panya, पारापतपदी parapatapadi, पारावताङ्घ्रि paravatanghri, पीततैला pitataila, पूतितैला putitaila, सारस्वती sarasvati, श्लेष्मघ्नी shlesmaghni, शृङ्गिन् shrngin, स्फुटरङ्गिणी sphutarangini, स्फुटवल्कली sphutavalkali, सुमेधस् sumedhas, सुपिङ्गला supingala, सुवेगा suvega, स्वर्णलता svarnalata, तेजस्विनी tejasvini, तेजोह्वा tejohva, तीक्ष्णा tiksna, तिक्तका tiktaka, वायसादनी vayasadani

To my knowledge, I have only heard this plant spoken of as either કાગડોળિયો or કરોળિયો in Gujarati. Though the first two names you have cited are used by some, they are likely to have been appropriated from other tongues. The last name mentioned in your post – “shivajaal” – also seems to belong to some other Indian language(s).


Thank you very very much, …
I agree, the names: બોધ bodha, કપાલફોડી kapaalphodi, શિવજાલ shivajaal are clearly from other languages – quite possibly used in ayurveda.
Will add કાગડોળિયો, કરોળિયો.
