\n<\/font><\/p>\n

A species<\/font> closely similar to I. mauritiana<\/font><\/i> and often confused with it, differing<\/font> mainly in narrower leaf lobes and narrower longer calyx lobes. <\/font>Both species have been uploaded together in the thread<\/a><\/font><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Photographed <\/font>from Rajouri Garden in Delhi.<\/font> <\/span><\/p>\n


\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

It is also supposed to have tuberous roots like I. batatas<\/i> and I. mauritiana<\/i> and also used medicinally.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

I saw only one plant grown along the wall in Rajouri Garden in Delhi. <\/p>\n

Looks like Ipomoea<\/i> sp<\/p>\n


\n

how about Ipomoea<\/font> digitata<\/font><\/i> <\/span>L.<\/font><\/p>\n


\n

<\/span><\/font><\/span><\/p>\n

\n
May be some Ornamental varieties of Ipomoea batatas<\/i>?<\/p>\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
… is right. It is I. digitata<\/i> L. now known as Ipomoea cheirophylla<\/i><\/span> O’Donell, Lilloa 29: 141 141 1959.<\/span><\/p>\n
Here is my upload<\/a> from Delhi<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
\n

A species closely similar to I. mauritiana<\/i><\/font> and often confused with it, differing mainly in narrower leaf lobes and narrower longer calyx lobes.<\/font> Both species have been uploaded together in the\u00a0thread<\/a>, one by Dinesh ji and one by me.<\/font><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n
Thanks to … for the detailing.<\/font><\/p>\n
This is called <\/font>Vidari Kanda <\/span>in Coastal Karnataka, and is <\/font><\/span>excessively used in the preparation of Chyavan prash, an Ayurvedic Tonic.<\/font> Often it is cultivated in the Areca gardens too.<\/font><\/p>\n
\n

<\/span><\/font><\/font><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
As … mentioned, this species is often confused with I. mauritiana<\/i>, hence the name I. digitata<\/i> L. (native to S.America) has been incorrectly treated as synonymous to I. mauritiana<\/i> (a widely distributed species) in the past.<\/div>\n

As far as I know, Vidari Kanda<\/b> is actually <\/font>Ipomoea mauritiana<\/i><\/font><\/a> (= I. digitata<\/i> auct non L.; = I. paniculata<\/i>)<\/font> and not I. digitata<\/i> L. <\/p>\n

requesting identification of this climber at a Hsng soc garden<\/font> at Pune<\/font> . It appeared to be a climber as well as a creeper. The basal leaves appear to be divided<\/font>. No flowers or fruits were seen. Is this some Ipomoea<\/i> spp?<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n
\n

<\/span>This should be Ipomoea batatas<\/i>, the sweet potato<\/b> or Ratale<\/b>. <\/p>\n

To me it appears to be Ipomoea digitata<\/i><\/font><\/a>\u00a0as per images herein.<\/p>\n
