Satish Ji,
You are right. It is of course Ophiopogon intermedius not Chlorophytum.
Thanks for correctng me. I have never seen Ophiopogon flowers without
leaves. But I assume that the leaves may be hidden by the surrounding
plants.

Dear Sir,
This is not Biophytum sensitivum, It is Biophytum nervifolium. The main
difference is sepals are more or less equal to petals in B.sensitivum
whereas in B. nervifolium sepals are half the length of petals.

So nice to see an old favourite,Rashida.Thanks!! Am v. nostalgic about
this flower.Wonderfully fragrant.I grew this in Goa-both white &
yellow varieties.It is v. commonly grown in Mangalorean homes-being a
traditional favourite.There is a special way of weaving it into
gajras.We called it Basmati
I have always felt that this is a highly under-appreciated plant. With
it heady frgrance, I thought it would be more popular as a house
plant. But I am yet to see it growing in Delhi. I used to think, maybe
it doesn't do well in hot weather like that of Delhi's, but if it can
grow in
Chhattisgarh,
Aerva lanata seems to be the universal view on this plant. As Dinesh
says, tt looks like the woolliness of the leaves depends on the
habitat.
I take this plant to be identified as Aerva lanata.
