An Indigofera sp.


Thank you all ! I know it is indigofera but could mot ascertain the correct name! Could it be I. linnaei or I. dosua.


Seems to match with images of Indigofera dosua D.Don as per comparative images of Indigofera species in efi.

Indigofera dosua Buch.-Ham. ex D. Don ??

I think close to images at Indigofera heterantha Brandis as per images and details herein.


I think this looks more close to Indigofera dosua Buch.-Ham. ex D.Don

I feel it is necessary to review the I. heterantha page once.
I feel flower colors are different in different posts.


I think you may be right as per images at
https://efloraofindia.com/efi/indigofera-dosua/

Any other post?
