Wisely Dr.Neil Soares has cultivated them on his farm. These will be the only places where this glorious flower will be found growing safely from avaricious collectors. In the two monsoon seasons that I have been looking at wild flowers in Sanjay Gandhi National Park I have not seen this flower. I do recall that they were a couple of spots just off the tar road between Tulsi Lake and Goregaon entrance (now closed) that the Gloriosa superba was seen regularly. With this road closed now it will be difficult to recall the exact spots.
Cheers,

Thanks for posting these beautiful pics Neil. The flowers are of course beautiful, but the leaves and tendrils too appear like forming a musical note, or an embroidery pattern !
