At the C.E.C. Chlorophytum borivilianum tend to be in the majority. The only way to distinguish between the two is by digging up the plants. In C. borivilianum the tuber touches the stem whereas in C. tuberosum they are attached to the root fibres. Have dug up quite a few. Would suggest you do likewise. Happy digging !!!

I am confused. My pics do not match with the pics of C. borivilianum. Neither the petals nor the stamens are not separate. pl. explain the difference.

Bot. name : Chlorophytum tuberosum local name :Kuli Hindi: Safed Musli famiily Liliaceae One can see these flowers immediately after the first few showers. The leaves are cooked and eaten. This herb is also called edible chlorophytum. Leaves are radical and membranous. Etymology: Chloros = green and Phyton is a plant. Roots are tuberous, hence tuberosum cheers, shubhada "I am only one; but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; I will not refuse to do the something I can do." -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "efloraofindia" group.
