Gujarati name(s) of Verbascum chinense

[Dinesh Valke]

Dear friends, and Viplav ji,

Please help with Gujarati name(s) of Verbascum chinense in native script.

I found kalhar, kolhala, kutki listed in Biological Diversity of Gujarat [PDF]

kalhar could be કલહાર OR કલાર - both entries found in Gujarati Lexicon

kolhala could be rather કુલાહલ kulahal - એક જાતનું વૃક્ષ - entry found in Gujarati Lexicon

kutki must be કુટકી kutki - this name is used in Marathi too.

Regards.

Dinesh

Sorry for not being able to reply earlier. In Gujarati, this plant is known by two variants of the same name - કલાર and કલહાર. In Kachchhi, it is known as અડબાઉ મૂરી. 

Kulāhala is the Sanskrit name of this plant. In Gujarati, the name કુટકી seems to have been appropriated to refer to the Ayurvedic medicinal plant Picrorhiza kurroa Royle ex Benth. One of the descriptions of કુટકી in the Gujarati Lexicon suggests as much.

Best wishes, Viplav

Thanks, Viplav ji.
