Good morning Pankaj Ji Thank you so dearly for providing me the link of Ganesh Ji's reply. I think the content is same as in https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/indiantreepix/pW4Kpmc7KAw . Ganesh Ji identified the species as *H. roseum*, not *H. vittatum* !!!
Moreover, i copy here my earlier reply to Garg Sir that can be found in this very post - *"Thank you Garg Sir, for resurfacing the post. I think this species is Hippeastrum roseum as has been suggested by Ganesh Ji in another post - https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/indiantreepix/pW4Kpmc7KAw * *Regards,* *Surajit Koley"* Furthermore, the following link indicates that what are known as *H. roseum* are actually *H. puniceum.* Please see - http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbslist/2011-September/174k90a79nc5oim3j5t88rfqa3.html The same has been suggested by Samir Ji. So, what i should go for? *H. roseum*? *H.puniceum*? *H. vittatum*? Or do i take all for synonyms? Again, what might be the explanation of longer anther size in https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/indiantreepix/lycoris/indiantreepix/pW4Kpmc7KAw/YbdfrsfHToYJ ?
