Dear Lalithamba ji and Mandru ji, I found a Telugu name "malli dumpa" for the tuber of *Peristylus lawii* Wight *Reference*: Kandagatla, Ramesh & Ragan, Ajmeera & Suthari, Sateesh & Raju, Vatsavaya. (2018). PERISTYLUS LAWII (ORCHIDACEAE): A NEW RECORD FOR TELANGANA STATE, INDIA. <https://www.researchgate.net/publication/326147009_PERISTYLUS_LAWII_ORCHIDACEAE_A_NEW_RECORD_FOR_TELANGANA_STATE_INDIA> 41.
I am familiar with the word దుంప dumpa for tuber, typically an edible tuber. But I am not sure about malli ... would it be మల్లి ... or ... మళ్ళీ ? Regards.
