Thunbergia fragrans<\/i> of Acanthaceae<\/i> family.<\/p>\n

\n

I am sorry\u00a0… but yesterday I had posted a creeper which was Id as T fragrans<\/i> but its leaves are totally different than this creeper. Kindly refer to it. I cannot attach its pics as 2 threads would mix up<\/p>\n

\n

I think both are same species.
\nLeaves do not show much variation Plese compare picture no. 260920111981.jpg\u00a0\u00a0and 230920111877.jpg
\n(previous post use the link below) with 270920112017.jpg (this post).
\nLook at the picture 230920111877.jpg you can see that there different types of leaves in the same stem.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Size and shape may vary according to the availability of light\/shade and water for some plants. But if you compare the flowers they are basically the similar.<\/span><\/div>\n
Link for previous post<\/a> for comparison.<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Ok but I am not fully convinced about the leaves My previous post the leaves are much longer and pale green whereas todays post they are roundish broager and dark green. But I take your word as I am totally ignorant about plants<\/p>\n

\nMy observations:
\nThis plant is observed at many places on way to Panchgani Mahabaleshwar and also enroute Kaas in this season but<\/span> is not there on actual plateau.<\/div>\n
It is also grown in many bungalows in Pune as ornamental.
\n<\/span>The flowers at these altitudes are somewhat larger than those found here in city.<\/span><\/div>\n

Thunbergia fragrans<\/i> Roxb.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

I agree with …<\/p>\n

\n
yes. jungle thunbergia or officially Thunbergia fragrans<\/i> Roxb.<\/div>\n
we have a page<\/span><\/a>
\n<\/u><\/div>\n
though I have only seen them in highly cosseted glass houses in the western countries and not in our botanical gardens on the eastern gangetic planes\u00a0nor in the “Jungles”: more like \u00a0overgrown\u00a0 neglected mango orchards of old family owned jamindaris.<\/div>\n
while I was pondering these weird data in my mind, I was surfing absentmindedly for just a few \u00a0botanical drawings of this beautiful flower<\/div>\n
and I found this picture <\/span><\/a>and its parent page<\/span><\/a> , a hortus from a nursery and hotsouse gardens in AUSTRALIA of all places, is really from Curtis’s botanical journal page 58<\/span><\/a>.<\/div>\n
why is\u00a0 it worth mentioning? it is because….. he writer of that hortus, says its not fragrant, but also tells us that Roxburgh had said its fragrant.<\/div>\n
and surmises that perhaps the heat of a tropical forest is needed to bring out the fragrance\/\/scent of the flower.<\/div>\n
MY QUESTION TO ALL OF OUR MEMBERS, INCLUDING …, <\/span>did you notice a scent near this vine or the flower?
\n<\/span>I wonder if it should sprout out in a few months after monsoon and heat? thanks. this is asking a bit much, but I will appreciate it\u00a0\u00a0 ..<\/span><\/div>\n

\n

thanks … for that one more picture of the bud.<\/p>\n

\n

I feel I have not noticed any fragrance in wild flowers I have seen. May be it is very mild or not during\u00a0the day time.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n
Thanks once again … for the additional information and I must confess that I didn’t notice any fragrance from these flowers. Again Sirsi being a hill station from Karnataka the climate may not be very hot throughout the year. So perhaps the question of fragrant flowers even in summer is ruled out.<\/div>\n
Just deviating a bit, I had seen a climber in Wayanad last winter and looking at those flowers thought that these should be Thunbergia fragrans<\/i>. I don’t know id of the flower yet but posting it in this thread just to remove the confusion.

No. Look different. Pl. check comparative images at <\/span>Thunbergia<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Latest image looks like a Thunbergia<\/i>, but not T. fragrans<\/i> ……throat is wide .<\/p>\n

\n

Seems to be Thunbergia grandiflora<\/i> ‘Alba’.
\nLeaves would have helped.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

No !<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

It is not Thunbergia fragrance<\/i>.\u00a0\u00a0I have T.fragrance<\/i> in my home garden. Though the species name is fragrance it does not have any fragrance. Posting the pictures in a separate mail.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

– Had thought of that, but\u00a0T.fragrans<\/i> looked slightly different to me.<\/p>\n

\n

– According to Dr. Almeida’s ‘Flora of Maharashtra’ Vol 4A , Thunbergia laevis<\/i> is a synonym of Thunbergia fragrans<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n

– I think this is Thunbergia laevis<\/i><\/p>\n

\n

– According to the KEW Plant List which has updated all plant names with accepted names and synonyms, T. laevis<\/i> Nees is to be treated as T. fragrans var. laevis<\/i> (Nees) C. B. Clarke ex Hook.f. as was done in Flora of British India.
\nThis (T. fragrans<\/b> var. laevis<\/b><\/i>)<\/span> <\/span>differs<\/span> from T. fragrans<\/b><\/i> var. fragrans<\/b><\/i><\/span> in having flowers two in each leaf axil <\/span>(you can see that in first photograph, one perhaps dried up and one fresh), <\/span>pedicel much thickened above in fruit, flowers without fragrans, tube greenish and capsule puberulous.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

– Dr. Almeida has mentioned T.fragrans<\/i> var. laevis<\/i> as one of the synonyms and that’s fine with me –\u00a0T.fragrans<\/i> var. laevis<\/i> it is.<\/p>\n

Thank you for photos, \u2026 and your response to my question about presence or absence of fragrance in <\/span>Thumbergia fragrans<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
that was a thread<\/a> by …<\/u><\/div>\n
I wonder why would a physician-botanist of a substantial knowledge and caliber make such a mistake? or was it a mistake or the species has lost the ability to produce the necessary oils? we will perhaps never know.
\ni am very appreciative of your generosity and all members who are responding to my question<\/span><\/div>\n

Excerpts\u00a0 from FoI:<\/p>\n

“There has been lot of confusion on why the species name is<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>fragrans<\/i>. Dr. Roxburgh, who gave the name to this flower, says in his book,\u00a0<\/span>Plants of the Coast of Coromandel:<\/span>
<\/span>“<\/span>the plant possesses a peculiar and agreeable fragrance, and the beauty of its flowers, although not fragrant, entitle it to a place in the flower-garden”
So, the\u00a0<\/span>plant\u00a0possesses a fragrance, but not the\u00a0<\/span>flowers<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n

then. try to smell the leaves, crush some and smell….<\/p>\n

\n

There is no fragrant smell even after crushing leaves.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thunbergia laevis & Thunbergia fragrans and its varieties<\/a> : 5 posts by 3 authors.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
We have been mostly considering our posts as Thunbergia fragrans <\/i>Roxb<\/span><\/a>. so far, based\u00a0on references herein.<\/div>\n
However, Catalogue of Life gives following with distribution in India:<\/span><\/div>\n
Thunbergia laevis <\/i>Wall. ex Nees var. laevis<\/i><\/span><\/a> (India (E- N- & peninsular India), Sri Lanka, Mauritius (I), La Runion (I), Rodrigues (I), Sierra Leone (I))<\/span><\/div>\n

Thunbergia fragrans<\/i> var. vestita<\/i> Nees<\/span><\/a>\u00a0(India (S-India))
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
I tried to find out the differences between these and found one source at <\/span>A Revised Handbook to the Flora of Ceylon -, Volume 12<\/span><\/a> By M. D. Dassanayake\u00a0(1998) <\/span><\/div>\n
Keys are as below:<\/span><\/div>\n
Leaves with a pair of basal lobes on either side, flowers usually solitary in leaf axils- Thunbergia fragrans<\/b><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Leaves with a single basal lobes on either side or entire, flowers 2-4 in leaf axils- <\/span>Thunbergia laevis
\n<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Thunbergia laevis <\/b>var. laevis<\/b> – stem strigulose or glabrescent on angles. Flowers 2-3 in leaf axils. Corola limb 10-11 mm across lateral lobes.<\/span><\/div>\n
Thunbergia laevis <\/b>var.\u00a0vestita<\/b> – stem and leaves distinctly scabrid, hispid or hirsute. Flowers often solitary. Capsule tomentose.<\/span><\/div>\n
Thunbergia laevis <\/b>var. laevis<\/b> – stem and leaves glabrous or sparsely puberulous. Leaves 2.2-5.6 * 1.5-3.3 cm, generally with one basal lobe on either side. Flowers 1-3 in leaf axils; pedicels slender, to 2 cm long; corola less than 2.5 cm across lateral lobes.
\n<\/span><\/span>Right now I am not sure weather to follow them or not.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Distribution of <\/span>Thunbergia fragrans<\/i> subsp. fragrans<\/i><\/span><\/a> is as below:
\n<\/span>Myanmar [Burma] (Mandalay, Yangon), Bangladesh, China (Guizhou, Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan), Laos, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines (throughout), Sulawesi, Sumatra, Moluccas, Lesser Sunda Isl., Sumatra, Java, India (throughout), Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Pakistan (I), Singapore (I), Society Isl.

\n
\n

I checked all our observations in efi site.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
I think keys above are not proper and there is no clear cut demarcation between the two species as pointed out by keys above.<\/span><\/div>\n
Lobes are quite variable with a single post showing one, one and a half lobes. Some are showing more than two lobes\u00a0and I think it depends on the age of the leaf also.<\/span><\/div>\n
Immature leaves are showing more lobes compared to mature leaves.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
I think flora by Dr. Almeida gives Thunbergia fragrans var. laevis<\/i> as a syn. of Thunbergia fragrans <\/b>as per thread: <\/span>Please identify this climber – 080311NS-8<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n
Different sources available online,\u00a0show both the species with contradicting descriptions, as below:<\/span><\/div>\n

Gardening in India<\/span><\/a> By George Marshall Woodrow, G Marshall (1999)<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
In view, I feel let us have only one species as <\/span>Thunbergia fragrans<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

That would be a good decision.<\/p>\n

\n

yes. until some grad student collects lots and lots of specimen from different states and ecosystems and does thorough exam and writes a detailed paper<\/p>\n

A common garden plant, a climber, in my place<\/span>. I have many in my garden. Though it is\u00a0 named fragrance (sps.) it has no fragrance – “irony of fate” !!!

Yes. Contrary to its species name it has no fragrans.<\/em> <\/span>Common name white-lady<\/strong>. But why the flowers are not fully opened. But there is slight variation in leaves compared to the pictures on NET. In fact I have this plant in my garden. Comes up on its own. In Tamil Nadu the plant is known as indrapushpam<\/strong> & used in Sidda medicine.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

… has some doubts about leaf shape. Your opinion please<\/p>\n

\n

I think it matches quite well as per images at\u00a0Thunbergia fragrans<\/span><\/a><\/em> and there is no other closer species to it.

ID is correct. Though the species epithet is fragrans.<\/em> It has no fragrance. It is a common garden plant. I have this in my garden. Self sowing seeds and if you plant one you get\u00a0 plenty of them in your garden in a few months time especially during monsoon.<\/p>\n
