I agree Mr Garg that the flowers look different (no pink underneath) but the 
description in FOI says that flowers 'appear in axial stalkless clusters’ as in 
Saroj ji’s photos. Lanceolata flowers are at the end of long dangling stalks 
usually at the end of branches. But I may be making a mistake too. I would let 
experts decide.

Thanks and regards,
Ashwini
