\nTQ-Manipur11 Unid herb from Manipur<\/a>: 4 images.
\nWe found this herb growing near a waterfall<\/span> in Manipur, altitude around 800-1000 m. It was flowering in early April.<\/span> Any clue to its identity will be welcome!<\/p>\n

\n

Check with Boraginaceae<\/em> members locally<\/p>\n

\n

Thanks for the Boraginaceae<\/em> suggestion. One more picture, closeup of the flowers, to supplement.<\/p>\n

\n

I think may be from Solanaceae.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

This is most likely\u00a0Tournefortia<\/i> of Boraginaceae,<\/em> as … indicated.<\/p>\n

The species id is complicated – the three most suitable candidates are –<\/div>\n
1)\u00a0T. candollii\u00a0<\/i>\u00a02)\u00a0T. viridiflora<\/i>\u00a0and 3)\u00a0T. roxburghii<\/i>\u00a0of Flora of British India.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I think it is the first one, because 1) longer corolla …. and no.3 above is from Bangladesh.<\/div>\n
But<\/div>\n
What would be present accepted id? Check the following URLs, if you please –<\/div>\n

    Awesome photographs.\u00a0I have seen this plant.<\/p>\n

    Where did you photograph?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n

    I have snapped these\u00a0at Karbi Anglong District of Assam.<\/p>\n

    \n

    Was it\u00a0planted as I do not find its distribution in India as per\u00a0Wikipedia<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0POWO<\/a>\u00a0?<\/p>\n

    \n

    Yes, its planted at a house.<\/p>\n

    \n

    I think this should be\u00a0Tournefortia montana<\/em>\u00a0Loureiro<\/a> as per images and details herein. Somebody must have collected from the wild and planted in the house.<\/p>\n

    \n
    \n

    Agreed, Sir.<\/p><\/div>\n
