Clerodendrum johnstonii

Latin Name Observation Date Location
Clerodendrum johnstonii 7, August, 2025 Shagamu, Ogun State, Nigeria


Life is beautiful. Can't you see the silhouette effects of the image above—green and beautiful?

Today, within the garden, I found this plant. But can you believe that the identifier on iNaturalist failed to identify it correctly? It gave me a plant with a similar flower, but considering the texture of the leaves, I knew that wasn't it at all. It is not. My eyes cannot deceive me into thinking that what I saw was what I wanted. 😂

Immediately, I went to Google Images and searched for the real scientific name. Hmmm!

Clerodendrum johnstonii is the actual scientific name.

My advice to you all is this: never finalize the name of any plant without doing your own research. Some plants might have similar leaves but differ in their stalk.

Thanks for visiting guys, see you next time.
