Sonerila scapigera at Matheran.

Beautiful Sonerila species.

Beautiful pictures … I am reminded of similar flowers seen recently in Mahabaleshwar, growing on rocks.

In the monsoons of Matheran, the most busiest hill station of Mumbai, where all days are full of visistors. We managed to get few of good photographs of this sahyadri’s hot spot. Thanks to amish for sharing the pic with me, since those days I was away from camera. I am attaching the seasonal flower of Matheran.

For the first time i had seen this “Sonerila sp” in white colour. Petiole & peduncle both were greenish.
Date/Time: 22-08-2010 / 03:30PM
Location: on the way to Kalsubai (Seen on the Rock face).
Habitat: Wild
Plant habit: herb

The whole plant lacks the pink colour. This is a mutation if it was a single plant. A group of plants can show this variation depending upon exposure to sunlight and chemical deposits on the rock. It can be called a white morf.

Any possibility of Sonerila nayariana Murug. & V.Balas. though it has got distribution in TN !.

May be Sonerila scapigera Dalzell as per images and details herein.
