Commelina leaved Habenaria. The plant is very peculiar as it really
matches with Commelinaceous as well as Chlorophytum in early stages.
Had faced lot of problem identifying it in vegetative condition. Very
interestingly, many of my friends reported this from grassland whereas
I personally always found it in open Sal forests in Jharkhand and
adjoining areas.
It has some medicinal value too. Used against nose bleeding and urinary issues.
Thanks a lot for sharing.
