Ruellia elegans\u00a0<\/i>Poir. ???<\/p>\n
\n<\/div>\n

I think looks different from images at\u00a0Ruellia elegans<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\n

This is an neotropical bird-pollinated Ruellia<\/em> but I can’t identify which from the photo. You could contact Erin A. Manzitto-Tripp,\u00a0who might be able to name it.<\/p>\n

\n

From where? Prob R brevifolia<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

It is from\u00a0Eden\u00a0Project, Cornwall, UK<\/p>\n

\n

I guess\u00a0Ruellia brevifolia\u00a0<\/i>(Pohl) C.Ezcurra is a perfect match.<\/p>\n
