Chlorophytum sps.

[Kiran Srivastava]

We came across a large patch of Chlorophytum tuberosum flowers this morning near the CEC in Sanjay Gandhi National Park, Mumbai. It is commonly called Edible Chlorophytum and I hope the identification is correct.

 

The black clumps in the habitat shot are last year’s Pin Cushion plant, Neuracanthus sphaerostaychs.

 

Cheers,
