I hope cyanotis cristata Thank you … After looking up on the net I have found that the blue tip is a very delicate flower. I try to go and look everyday for the bud to open but as yet have remained unlucky. I hope to get to see it. …, am afraid what you are seeing as a bud is a flower which has lost its glory. Yes Cyanotis cristata for me too. … I had gone to the same area from where I had photographed this plant in the 1st wk of Sep 2011. But the wild plants were cleared out . I searched my old photographs and found 1 photograph with a flower of a similar looking plant photographed from the same area on 12th Sep 2011. Attaching the pics. But the leaves shape looks a little different and also I cannot see lines on the leaves. Also the spathe(please correct me if I am wrong) looks smaller. I fear this plant the pictures which I have attached today is different than the one I posted before and is Idd by experts

Cyanotis species for ID-201209-RK-2: Request ID of this species. On rock surface–Kallipaara Hill, Thattekad, Kerala. Pic taken 07-12-09. Cyanotis cristata..? – A guess.. Yes it is Cyanotis cristata (L.) D. Don. I will support … and … in this matter the plant is indeed.
Cyanotis cristata (L.) D. Don please check it for Cyanotis arachnoidea Clarke, is a species grows mostly some what higher altitude. Comparative study between Cyanotis burmanniana and C cristata shows more affinity towards Cyanotis burmanniana Wight. Cyanotis cristata for sure ……….earlier I was not aware with C. burmaniana but now I can easily recognize these two species in field easily….And this is C. cristata only.
please help me in identifying the species of this commelina(?) : 1 image. 2 posts by 2 authors. saw this small plant growing these new set of leaves… never seen anything like this earlier… the stalk just grows from behind and the newer [on the top] leaves start to open.
