Another way to differentiate would be - Flower buds like "modak" (during Ganesha festival, modaks are made) - C. gigantea Flower buds like "pedha" .(I am sure every one knows the shape of Pedha...............................................................................................C. procera..
I found this differentiation is very easy to identify these species.
