Please ID this hanging plant(Solved)

Post by hrgpk »

This is a very common hanging plant in Pakistan, but no nursery staff in Jhelum stocks it. I am posting its photo. Help will be appreciated.

May be Dichondra argentea Silver Falls. There are some other plants which are very similar of you picture that's why Farooq asked for a close up.

@mirafzalkhan, I don't have any close ups. I will take a close up picture when I come across it next time. Any idea what is its local name? Botanical names are hard to remember. You need to have a chemist's memory to remember their names:)

I think it's Vernonia Elaeagnifolia.
