Hello
What do we do after digging up? Replant them?

Hi Shubhada, 
  C.borivilianum & C.tuberosum are indistinguishable morphologically in the 
field and also from photographs. 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 !!! 
                        Regards, 
                          Neil.

Hi Neil,
When u say something, I have to recheck 100 times. 
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.
Cheers,
Shubhada

Hi Shubhada,
   Nice photographs, but they are of Chlorophytum borivalianum.
                         Regards,
                           Neil.

Hi friends,
I saw second wild flower of the season in the forest at CEC, Goregaon, Mumbai 
today. 

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
