Garden ornamental for ID
Planted in archaeological park Chand Bagh Maula Ali, Hyderabad. Photographed 25th June 2013.
Should be Odontonema strictum, common name Firespike as in FOI. … is right. It is Odontonema strictum of Acanthaceae. This garden plant attracts bees, butterflies and birds (Humming bird). One important issue for me was whether it is a native species, which Odontonema strictum is’nt. it seems very difficult to find native ornamentals in our gardens and parks!
