Fabaceae (Faboideae) Fortnight :: Indigofera for ID :: MK-OCT-06 : 8 posts by 5 authors. Attachments (4) Would be grateful if you could help me identify this Indigofera species. Sorry for the poor pictures.
Habit: small herb
Height: 20-25 cm
Habitat: semi-evergreen forest edge (road-side)

It could be Indigofera karnatakana Sanjappa for the following:
Leaflets linear-obovate or oblanceolate., apex apiculate, base subacute. Leaflets 7-21. Flowers bright red in short racemes 3-6 flowers.
Indigofera colutea
I think this is Indigofera suffruticosa Mill.
To me images look different from the images at Indigofera colutea & Indigofera suffruticosa |
