\nBarleria species for identification NAK1 December 22<\/a>: 8 very high res. images.
\nPlease help identify this Barleria,<\/em> seeds collected from Bellary, Karnataka and grown in Bangalore.<\/span> It has bloomed now and I am able to key it to B. tomentosa<\/em> based on the bracts being equal to or longer than the calyx. I would like to know if this identification is right.<\/p>\n

\n

I think so as per attached publication and as per images at
