 the plant was clicked from bangalore during my recent trip (24th

 24-25 degree C. the branches bore a brown felt and the leaves were glabrous.

 Flowers reddish in color and the fully opened inflorescence was of the
 size of a large fist. the flowers were slightly fragrant and pretty fragile.

It is not true, If that is the case written in that book. Last season I
handled lots of fruits of the S. zeylanicum. Further, color other than
flowers, is not a valid character for id. By the way, dear Muthu, I was not
mentioning it as S. zeylanicum but S heyneanum. Have you mistaken at some

  calyculata doesnt mean short calyx, it means provided with

  the plant was clicked from bangalore during my recent trip (24th
  August-30th August, 2010). it was drizzling and the temperature was around
  24-25 degree C. the branches bore a brown felt and the leaves were 
  glabrous.

  Flowers reddish in color and the fully opened inflorescence was of the
  size of a large fist. the flowers were slightly fragrant and pretty 
  fragile.

 Monsoons Wild Leafy Vegetable available in Mumbai

   Hi Chaullee ji,
 I had posted it before. now i am posting all stages of the plant.
 Botanical name : Ammorphophallus commutatus
 marathi name : Shevla
 hindi name : jangli suran
 English common name : Dragon stalk yam.
 Family: araceae (arum)

 Flower stalk appears first just before the onset of monsoon. Flower stalks
 are edible. I do not about the nutrients it has. But the vegetable is tasty.
 Leaves appear later after rains.
   Now u will see these plants bearing the fruits.
 i have numbered the pics to understand the growth of the plant.

 cheers,
 shubhada
