Persicaria maculata ABAUG2017/40

[Ashwini Bhatia]

These plants are shorter with more upright, denser, flower-spikes. The leaves have black markings. I think this is Persicaria maculata. Please advise.

Persicaria maculata?

I think you are talking of Persicaria maculata S.F.Gray synonym for Persicaria lapathifolia subsp. lapathifolia (also available in efi) as per Catalogue of Life & not Persicaria maculata (Raf.) A. Löve & D. Löve (not available in efi) 

I also think matches with images in efi at Persicaria lapathifolia
