I agree with Neil ji and Rawat ji; it is *Amorphophallus* sp. It is possible that they grow in the same habitat thus can cause confusion. But they are easily distinguishable by their leaf, flower/infl. etc.
Here is the key from Flora of China: - Leaves variously divided (most commonly pedate to pedatisect but not decompound), very rarely entire; berries ripening reddish. *Arisaema* + Leaves commonly solitary, usually decompound, very rarely pedate, never entire; berries ripening red or blue. *Amorphophallus* Regards Vijayasankar ------------------------------------------------------------------- Vijayasankar Raman, Ph.D. National Center for Natural Products Research University of Mississippi On Mon, Aug 25, 2014 at 4:15 AM, Santhan P <[email protected]> wrote: > Sir, this is Arisaema only, Amarphophalus is taller and giant and is > cultivated in regular plots.
