Impatiens rupicola Hook. f., Bull. Misc. Inform. Kew 1910:292. 1910;
Balsaminaceae, Geraniaceae and Oxalidaceae Week:: Balsaminaceae:: Impatiens tomentosa at Kudal – PKA40 : 4 images. 7 posts by 5 authors. Came across this small erect herb near “Kudal, Konkan”.
Bot. name: Impatiens tomentosa Family: Balsaminaceae Common name: Phonda Terda I don’t know what is it, but not I. tomentosa…
As far as I see leaves are without any hairs and in Dessai & Janarhtanam’s paper I. tomentosa is described as hairy. Also shape of flower and leaves shown are different
I think it is I.oppositifolia This balsam looks like Impatiens rupicola Hook.f., which forms a complex with I. oppositifolia. References: |
