ReplyDeleteHi Patali
ReplyDeleteThanks for the valuable suggestion. But in this case I would like not to make it public considering scarcity of this plant. I think we must protect this particular population from collectors for varies purposes. Because it is a place with easy access(It is a temple in Kurunagala district). If you really want to know the place I can let you know it by an email:)
