Wild climber from Medekere area of Karnataka
When were these images clicked ? May we see the close up of the leaves.
Do these match with images and references at Capparis tenera
Flora of China says: Fruit red when mature, globose, 7-10 mm in diam., apex rarely shortly tipped; fruiting pedicel and gynophore ca. 0.5 mm thick.
Herbarium JCB – IISc says fruits globose to 1 cm across, red when ripe.
Does the fruit image matches with the description above ?

It is not Capparis zeylanica as suspected by some experts., it is smaller, about 2cm dia, several fruits are there, the fruits of C. zeylanica will be more than 5 cm dia. leaves greenish, glabrous here, it is greyish, pubescent green in C. zeylanica. |
