April 2013 Kindly help Id this potted plant height about 2 ft at a housing society garden at Pune. Is this any Ruellia spp?
It may be Ruellia brittoniana Thank you … for the Id    Attaching some more pictures of leaves and fruit. The stem is very hairy and nodes appear purplish. Can this be Ruellia tuberosa? Id help … post After careful observation of many Ruellia specimens and photographs with me I doubted this plant shows more affinity towards Ruellia simplex rather than to R. brittoniana. Expect the comments from other experts! May i know what are the differences between Ruellia simplex and R. brittoniana?
As per following sites they are synonyms, maybe one is illegitimate –
Leaves in Ruellia simplex seem to be more linear, as per following sites, one or two images show a bit broader leaves too –
