Saroj Kasaju ji

It is Zingiber roseum ,its inflorescence/flower is different from Zingiber chrysanthum however the seeds and matured red inflorescence looks similar to Z.chrysanthum.

Date and location is already mentioned please go through the main post sir.

Hi, Ashutosh ji,

But the pictures initially uploaded by you were identified as Z. chrysanthum by Sabu ji.

Did you post another plant in the same post?

Garg ji
This is the similar plant.
Earlier it was said by Sabu sir 'This is very close to Z. chrysanthum but need further studies'
But as its flowers looks different from all other plants posted as Z.chrysanthum on site .

After sending more detailed images that I have attached recently Sabu sir replied its 'Zingiber roseum. labellum shows slight variation'

Moreover it is also matching with other images of Z.roseum present on site.

Best regards
Ashutosh Sharma

Thanks, Ashutosh ji.

I was worried as further reply of Sabu ji was not in the thread.
