Oldenlandia umbellata<\/i> (called chay root<\/b> or choy root<\/b>, from its Tamil<\/span><\/a> name (Chaaya ver<\/b>)) is a low-growing plant native to <\/span>India<\/span><\/a>.[1]<\/span><\/a><\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A colour-fast red <\/span>dye<\/span><\/a> can be extracted from the root bark of (preferably) a two year old plant. Chay root dye was once used with a <\/span>mordant<\/span><\/a> to impart a red colour to fabrics such as <\/span>calico<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>wool<\/span><\/a>, and <\/span>silk<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/div>\n
It is grown on the Coromandel Coast<\/span><\/a> in India<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/div>\n
This plant is well known in <\/span>Siddha<\/span><\/a> Medicine for its <\/span>styptic<\/span><\/a> property. It is also a drug that can be administered for bronchial asthma, as a decoction of the entire plant, a decoction made from its root and liquorice in the ratio-10:4, or the powdered root is given either with water or honey.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
A decoction of the root also is a febrifuge<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

It is Oldenlandia umbellata<\/i> L. – the inflorescence is clearly an umbel<\/span>. sometimes due to some genetical errors the floral parts number may vary as in 122 picture. (E.g. Some humans have 6 fingers instead of 5)<\/p>\n

This could be Mitracarpus verticillatus<\/i> (doubtfully) if the dehiscence of fruits circumscissile.

\u00bf Oldenlandia umbellata<\/i> ?<\/span><\/span> \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dear friends,
\nMost probably, these too could be Oldenlandia umbellata<\/i> … refer my earlier post<\/u><\/span><\/a>. Photo quality is poor; these plants were at some other place in the disturbed area. The area was been left untended for quite long time, since the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami. The resulting scrub forest seems like a haphazard mix of herbs, climbers and twiners among planted trees.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n
your previous pictures in the earlier thread are also taken with the same camera. it has better details. i was thinking as soon as i saw this case first that i dont see details, may be because its a point and shoot camera but its not. just a different day,<\/div>\n
a different situation<\/div>\n
==
\nback to this case. seems to be<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

I deleted some writing in the post that I wanted to send across. It was about the new camera and my struggle to cope up with its controls for improving quality beyond what is delivered by its “auto” OR “program” logic. I have always lived with auto\/ program and straight-out-of-camera JPEG pictures. Except for manual adjusting of metering and focus area. This new camera washes out details in bright OR white area owing to its long range 24 – 480. I will learn to do some other adjustments – may be EV or any other parameter to gain the details. So, until then, have to go with lesser quality pics \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\n
\n

i wish you rapid learning curve.\u00a0I have an ulterior motive. i need to replace my prosumer Sony soon. was hoping you will lead me to some good choices<\/p>\n

Dear friends,
\nThese are the only pictures I have; they remind me of Oldenlandia umbellata<\/i> – please validate.<\/p>\n

\n

great details even in the white flowers.\u00a0its very difficult to properly expose white flowers<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Thanks … Here the plants were in shade. That helped me get some details.<\/div>\n
Zooming into original size picture 1:1 is not pleasant at all.
\nI will have to bear with lesser quality versus carrying two lenses.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

can you fit lens front end magnifying diopters?<\/p>\n

\n

I will have to check in forums about it – of their availability from Lumix, and whether they help improve quality.<\/p>\n
