TSPNOV2015-74-118-Cissus quadrangularis (Vitaceae) : 4 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (6) It is my pleasure to share few images of Cissus quadrangularis (Vitaceae ) Habit: Climbing, succulent shrub Habitat: Wild, Scrub forest Sighting: Tumkur, Karnataka, about 800 msl Date: 16-07-2014, 02-03-2015 and 16-11-2015 I know this plant. i had it growing in my back yard in kolkata for several seasons.
it grew gregariously but never bloomed as much as in the wild. wonder why I believe, just like animals, plants do need a fair no. of their own kind, above critical levels, to show up their true characters say blooming. Not sure…! How nice! The succulent branches are enough to identify this plant.

Stem cylindrical to quadrangular.
Is it not cissus quadrangularis?
to me also it appears close to images at efi page on Cissus quadrangularis The leaf and fruit indicate it is Cissus quadrangularis, but in some cultivated plants the stems 4 angles are not well defined; hence they say it is not Cissus quadrangularis.

Location- Baramati, Dist- Pune. Maharashtra Habitat– Garden. Currently it is in my home garden. I dont know its true habitat, It might have come along with other plants. I found it growing so I planted it in pot in black cotton soil. Plant Habit– not sure. it has a tendril growing from internode, the stem is rectangular, green, smooth and herbaceous. Height– it hailed here on 9 march, 2014 so the plant was badly injured, you can see it is bruised. currently the plant height is 1 foot, I don’t know its growing potential. old branching pattern is visible at first node. Leaves Type- Please find in attached image Inflorescence Type/ Size- Never saw since i planted. I was curious to find the root pattern and with intention to multiply it; I dug and found rhizome image no. 6. If i m wrong in description part please understand that i’m a pseudo botanist and refer the images. Apologies! Cissus quadrangularis! This is Cissus quadrangularis (Vitaceae). Chutney made out of its stem is very tasty. I had three forms of this plant, still might be available with Tamil University Herbal Garden. One is normal with exerted corners. Second is blunted corners, somewhat cylindrical. Third form is two sided flat stemmed. In this third form few inter nodes are three sided. If needed to anyone, I can upload the images
Succulent for ID Tiruvannamalei, Tamil Nadu NAW-OCT-09 : 9 posts by 4 authors. Attachments (5).
Kindly identify this succulent climber photographed on the Aruanachala hill reserve forest, Tiruvannamalei, Tamil Nadu in September 2014.
Fleshy stems about 1.5-2 cm thick. The 3rd picture possibly shows a curled new leaf.
Nice photos … Looks like Cissus quadrangularis ( பிரண்டை). Yes Cissus quadrangularis, I get the leaves but my specimen has never developed the flowers or fruits. In Bengal and Bihar known as Had-joda, has bio-available reagents in the stem.
nice to see them here, thanks It’s called Pirandai in Tamil and the tender shoots can make for some interesting chutney if properly treated. If the plant is near you, you might want to give it a shot. (simply google Pirandai chutney recipe). Thank you, will definitely try the chutney. i did and found a nic Utube video, I did not understand her speaking, but enjoyed the process, she had this to write at the bottom of her video: I quote : ‘” Published on Dec 20, 2012
Pirandai Thuvaiyal / Pirandai Thugayal / ADAMANT CREEPER CHUTNEY( ADAMANT CREEPER also called Asthisonhara, vajravalli , hadjod, hadjora, harsankari, hasjora, harbhanga, haudhari, kandavela, chadhuri; vedhari, nalleru, pirandai, mangaroli ) which is tasty and also healthy recipe/ good for bones, gastric problems, appetizer. One of best siddha and ayurvedic medicated natural recipe. This is an alternate medicine for gastric problem. This is very old traditional recipe and marunthu ( medicine ) made in indian homes, this is one of best variety of chutney. ” end quote… url is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17-lp5owWEM
i found one of the synonyms very interesting and I think quite apt… ADAMANT CREEPR…. unless one forgets to water it in high summer heat it lives happily in the pot for me.. and often over grows…
secondly if you understand her language can you tell me what did she add at 1:26 to 1:32 into the video, small amount of whitish beige type powder???
It really is an apt name! I love that quality of the plant, independent and strong. Thanks …: Our recipe is a little loose on account of all of us being quite the experimenters in the kitchen! Here is my estimate of the quantities. Feel free to change it to suit your tastes. The only key point is to make sure you cook the Pirandai well.
To pick your Pirandai, take only the top few, bright green pieces of the stem, the tender ones. Remove the 4 edges of the stem and chop into 1cm cubes. I’m going to assume you are using about 12 pieces of it like you said. It sometimes starts to irritate your fingers when you cut it; try not to let too much raw juice coat your fingers.
In a tawa, add a little oil, and fry two spoons each of urad dal and Bengal Gram Dal. Add Red chilli and tamarind to taste. Add Hing to taste. Once they are done, remove from tawa to cool. Heat a little more oil and saute the Pirandai pieces until pale green. (keep it till it’s slightly paler than what was shown in the video). Cool and grind it all together with about half a coconut. Add salt to taste and season with just mustard fried in a little oil, and it’s done. Hope you enjoy the chutney you make. Feel free to add things or remove them as you choose. Like I said, the only requirement for the dish to be edible is the cooking of the vegetable. Otherwise, the tastes are all changeable. Amma has put together an interesting little ebook on traditional recipes that she likes giving out to anyone interested. If you would like to read it, do download it from this link: http://artyplantz.org/natural-farming/ (You would need to fill in the form on the right side bar.) Thanks … I wonder if the cooked chutney will retain its bone healing properties… regardless I will certainly try it.

Again this creeper was discussed earlier…. adding my picture showing the leaves.
Taken at Jijamata Udyan, Mumbai on the 11th of July, 2008. In tamil it is called “Perandai” and it is not only used to make chutney but is also used as a ingredient in Ayurveda to bind the fractures. This plant is Cissus quadrangularis Linn [Syn: Vitis quadrangularis Wall. ex Wt & arn.] from the family Vitaceae. In Bengal it is locally known as Harjora or harbhanja [the plant that cures fractured bones].
Again from Herbal Garden Chitrakoot written as Cissus quadrangularis (hindi- Harjora) The plant in your photo is not C quadrangularis but its name is Cissus subtetragona Planchon in A. Candolle & C. Candolle.
Description of the plant in provided below please match with the plant photo or profile.
Branchlets nearly terete, upper part nearly square in cross-section, longitudinal ridges inconspicuous, glabrous; tendrils unbranched. Leaves simple; stipules caducous; petiole 0.8-3.5 cm, glabrous; leaf blade oblong or triangular-oblong, 6-19 × 2-7 cm, glabrous, basal veins 3, lateral veins 4-6 pairs, veinlets inconspicuous, base nearly truncate, margin with 5-11 fine teeth on each side, apex acuminate or mucronate. Compound dichasium terminal or leaf-opposed; peduncle 1-3 cm, glabrous or with sparse papillary hairs. Pedicel 3-10 cm, nearly glabrous. Buds conical-elliptic, 3-4 mm, apex obtuse. Calyx entire. Petals triangular-oblong, 2-3 mm, glabrous. Anthers ovoid-elliptic. Lower part of ovary adnate to disk; style conical; stigma slightly expanded. Berry 0.8-1.2 cm in diam., 1-seeded. Seed surface smooth, raphe raised, ventral holes very short at base. Thanks …, for pointing out the discrepancy in Chitrakoot plant, and … for resolving its identity. …y, I am becoming a fan of you. Keep it up. Thank you … for you humble compliment and the truth is that I am your fan. Yes it feels really nice to spend time here in this group not only identification of plants are important out here but also rejuvenation of mind with new information about plant life in most interesting part of the group. At every moment I always get to see new plants from India and around , it’s not always possible for me identify all of them disclosing the fact that I am too young and lack experience to remember the complete flora of India which has one of the largest biodiversity among the plant kingdom in the world with nearly 10 hot spot zones. I try my best to contribute from my side and learn from more mature, experienced and hardcore taxonomist and plant lovers out here. This is all what I wanted, I am happy and feel good at the end of the day when I get hold of some IDs correct. I will always thank Dinesh Ji who introduced me to this group without his introduction it would have been impossible for me to gather so much new knowledge about plant under a single roof better to say in a single click of a button. Cissus subtetragona is added as adulterant to Cissus quadrangularis and considered inferior in terms of medicinal properties by traders. But for the Healers both species are important. This is Cissus quadrangularis only as per cissus quadrangularis other forms flat stemmed and round stemmed
Does not match with Cissus subtetragona Planchon as per FOC illustration FPCN GBIF I think you’re right … Old stems become obese, regularly observed !
I suppose Cissus repens I would like to correct Cissus repanda. The following key should help in settling issue
Not sure what the plant in question here is, but am sending a few photographs of a young plant of Cissus repanda for comparison. The photographs were taken at my farm at Shahapur. As you may be aware, Cissus quadrangularis also has cylindrical and flattened stems (perhaps under cultivation?) in addition to the normal 4-angled stems. On closer inspection, I find that the cross-section is cylindrical and almost square in parts with one section having a fluted side. I find no resmblance to … pics of C. repanda. leaf here does look like Cissus quadrangularis L.
and google search does say that flat stem, round stem and quadrangular stem variants area available, though I have seen just the quadrangular one which we have in our garden. This also never flowers and supposed to be highly medicinal. Cissus quadriangularis is supposed to have succulent stems, constricted nodes and simple tendrils, which I don’t see in above plant. Perhaps this paper should help
Cissus quadrangularis Better Photo will help. This seems like Pirendai common name in Tamil. . MS/ID/OCTOBER/2020/2 – ID of the plant Cissus quadrangularis : 4 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (3)
