Tradescantia : 1 post by 1 author.

I have updated efi page on Tradescantia

Attempts have been made to incorporate most of the species available in India & nearby areas with details & keys directly or through links as far as possible.

Efloraofindia species’ page links are at the bottom of the page.

Any comments are welcome.

.

.

Pl. go through ‎Tradescantia (‎‎Commelinaceae) page with images of species (mainly done by …) in efloraofindia.

If you find any mis-identification, pl. let us know. If anybody can send images of other species of this genera (for incorporation in the website), if any, it will be really nice.
Also, if anybody is interested to take up the activity of inserting images on efloraofindia pages from efloraofindia posts, pl. let us know.
