Do we take it as Celosia spicata Spreng? Celosia argentea var. spicata does not seem to have been published. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Many thanks Gurcharan ji. I was not sure whether to go ahead putting this var. *spicata* ... could not find it at GRIN or the Plants List. Me too would wait to know whether this plant is just *Celosia argentea* L ... or *Celosia spicata* Spreng ? Regards. Dinesh Not aware of any variety spicata. It is just *Celosia argentea* in BSI Flora Mah. Dr Satish Phadke Many thanks to all for appreciation. Agreed Satish ji, this must be Celosia argentea L. Will revise my notes at flickr, soon. Regards.
