this exotic plant is cultivated in Saudi Arabia, it tolerate the hot environment. It remembers me of the Genus Barleria (Acanthaceae), the leaves are opposite, ovate with smooth margin, the upper face is green while the lower face in blackish purpule.
can anyone help me in the identification of this exotic plant?
Genus is likely to be: Pseuderanthemum which is also in Acanthaceae. However, I'm not sure of the species.
It seems the plant is close to Pseuderanthemum carruthersii (Seem.) Guillaumin
I agree with Pseuderanthemum carruthersii (Semm.) Guillaumin, from Polynesia, widely cultivated in other regions of the world.
It may be Pseuderanthemum carruthersii, but a better picture is needed to be certain with the determination.
Pseuderanthemum carruthersii Family Acanthaceae looks like Jasmine A Garden plant
Undoubtedly it is Pseuderanthemum carruthersii (Seem.) Guillaumin of Acanthaceae family. The plant is endemic to Asian continent.
