Is it the species will flower once in 19 years?<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Strobilanthes callosus <\/i>appears to be the new\/latest\/unresolved name of the species on The Plant List<\/span><\/a> we used to call Carvia callosa<\/i> earlier.
\nMass flowering was observed in Western ghats in Sep 2008. (Most pictures on our forum and my collection confirms so) Occasional flowering is observed every year though in an isolated plant in the same region. Its flowering cycle is supposed to be 7 years so next flowering cycle will be in Aug\/Sep 2015.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Flowering of Karvy<\/b> happen after 7 yrs !!
\nAnd yes, agree with you …,
\nStrobilanthes callosus<\/i> is a new name for this plant !!
\nI hd already mentioned Carvia callosa<\/i> (as a synonym)
\nN also agreed that in 2008 Karvy was blooming in some region of W.ghats_Glad to share that I’m having photographs of Karvy in 2008 too \ud83d\ude42 (at Purandar fort n Bhimashankar region.)
\nI wonderd when i saw blooming in Oct 2012, these Photographs taken near Torna fort, Velhe (Pune) !!<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

I think the species with 17 year flowering cycle is Strobilanthes kunthianus<\/i> called Kurinji<\/b>. Though large scale flowering occurs cyclic we see some plants in flower every year. Had gone to Yercaud to see this sight in the nineties when I lived at Coimbatore. Lovely with less crowd than these days<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

At present all the 64\/68 previously described genera by Bremekamp are merged into one genus Strobilanthes<\/i>. This plietesial\/monocarpic genus is very interesting.<\/span> <\/span>We have 30 species in our living collection at Tropical Botanic Garden. Carvia callosa<\/i>? lost from our collection.<\/p>\n

\n

Strobilanthes kunthianus<\/b> is having a 12 year flowering cycle. Where as S. lawsonii<\/b> is telling to having 17 years flowering cycle by Gamble ? But Strobilanthes dupeni<\/b> Bedd ex Clarke is having 17 years flowering cyle. I have a few plants which flowered in 1995 and the seedling again flowered in 2012 at our garden, so the flowering cycle of S. dupeni<\/i> is 17 years.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is Karvi<\/b> [Carvia callosa<\/i>].<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Strobilanthes callosa<\/i> is the new name?<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
Negative. It is still called Carvia callosa<\/i> – the Common Conehead<\/b>. Sending a few photographs.

Dr.Almeida in his ‘Flora of Maharashtra’ Vol-4A; pg.23, refers to it as Carvia callosa<\/i>. Strobilanthes callosus<\/i> is listed as a synomym.\u00a0Bremekempia [pgs 20 – 22] is considered as a separate Genus.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

You are right, it is now known as Strobilanthes callosus<\/i> Nees following the earlier taxonomic concept of treating Strobilanthes<\/i> as a single genus. Bremekamp had a narrow generic concept of treating \u00a0Strobilanthes into several genera and currently his concept has been rejected. According to Bremekamp, the true Strobilanthes was not occurring in India then.<\/span><\/p>\n
