Indigofera sp. ID pl. : 5 posts by 4 authors. Attachments (1) For me this looks like Indigofera astragalina …, as far as i know, I. astragalina has broadly oblong, opposite leaflets and terminal, elongated racemes. But the posted picture shows narrow, alternate leaflets and shorter, axillary racemes.
You may refer Dr.Sanjappa’s revision for an unambiguous id.
