Rubiaceae Week :: Mussaenda sp from Munnar:
Long back i had photographed this plant at Munnar and these are the only snaps available. Thought of sharing with you all.
Looks like some Mussaenda sp. Photographed in wild..
Date: 22-11-2006


Looks Mussaenda to me too. Excellent close-up … The central portion looks different (or perhaps never saw this close); very beautiful and interesting.


Please check Mussaenda hirsutissima.


I too think it is Mussaenda hirsutissima
