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.
