\n

Its Indigofera trifoliata<\/i> L.<\/p>\n

Indigofera trifoliata<\/i> L. in Torner Cent . Pl. 229.1756. & Amoen. Acad. 4: 327. 1759; FBI 2: 96 p.p; C 1: 335 p.p; WI 5: 182f. 113; S & J; Hans & William 2: 123. Raghavan 25.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
20-60 cm, perennial, suffruticose, woody, stoutherbs with white or grey-appressed hairs. Stem: much branched. Leaves : \u00b11.5cm long, tri-foliate compound; leaflets 0.8\u20132.6 x 0.5\u20130.9 glabrous aboveappressed-pubescent beneath, oblanceolate, emarginate, black gland dotted, basecuneate, margin entire, apex obtuse; petiole shorter than leaflets 0.6\u20131.2 cmlong, terminal leaflet sessile; stipules \u00b10.1 cm long, setaceous,linear-subulate. Inflorescence : about1 cm long, 6-10 flowered, sessile, dense racemes shorter than leaves. Flower : Pedicels 0.1\u20130.2 cm long. Calyx : \u00b10.3 cm long, hairy outside;lobes \u00b10.1 cm, setaceous, lanceolate, subulate. Corolla : 0.5\u20130.6 cm long, red or pink to flame-coloured; standard\u00b10.45 cm oblong-obovate, pubescent. Fruits: Pods 1-1.5 x 0.2 cm long, stout or not, slightly 4-angled, deflexed, narrowlywinged on angles, 4-6 seeded, thinly pubescent not torulose. Seeds : 4-8, \u00b10.2 cm across, cuboid,angular, black.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
FLS & FRS: Aug.-Sept.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Dis. : Gujarat; Reported from Saurashtra; at Bharuch rare among grasses.<\/div>\n
The Indigofera hochstetteri<\/i> does not show trifoliate leaves .. its have around 5 leaflets..<\/span><\/div>\n
\n

I think this is more likely to be a variety of <\/span> Indigofera glandulosa.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\n

Pods of the plant will assist in giving exact identity of the plant<\/p>\n

\n

Looks like Indigofera<\/i> sp., may be Indigofera glandulosa<\/i><\/p>\n

\n

I think … got it right. It looks like Indigofera glandulosa. <\/i>The hairs on the stem<\/span> is not visible in the picture. Please check the plant before confirm the id.<\/p>\n

\n

… most probably Indigofera<\/i> species.<\/p>\n

\n

This could be Indigofera glandulosa<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

i hope the plant is Indigofera colutea<\/i> (Burm.f.) Merrill<\/p>\n

Do have a look at following Information from<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It is certainly NOT Indigofera colutea<\/i>, because the description provided by\u00a0… says ‘Leaves 7-11’ whereas the plant in the picture has 3-foliolate leaves<\/span>. I. colutea<\/i> has viscid glandular hairs all over.<\/div>\n
\n

If anyone access to Dr. Sanjappa’s Revision, it will be easy to identify\/confirm the id. Fruits characters also essential.<\/p>\n

\n

I think Indigofera trifoliata<\/i><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

This is one of the following species:
\nIndigofera glandulosa<\/i> Roxb. ex Willd.<\/span><\/a>
\nIndigofera trifoliata<\/i> L.<\/span><\/a>
\nIndigofera trita<\/i> L.f<\/span><\/a>
\nPerhaps at least one or two more photos could have helped.<\/p>\n

\n

Thanks for the interest shown … in this very old post of mine.
\nI had added a couple of pictures later.
\nHere they are…..
\nI have been very busy since Sept, unable to interact on our group.
\nHope to be able to find free time in a few days.
