Dear Prasad Dash ji,

I would request you to post different plants in separate mails and
resizing your photos upto 150K only.

BTW, your photo 1 (Orissa.jpg) is Alpinia malaccensis (Zingiberaceae).

Regards,
Ritesh.

Affirmative. Photograph 2 is Waghchora [Pecteilis gigantea]. Please check the archives of this group for my photographs of this.
