Edible Chlorophytum • Hindi: सफ़ेद मुसली Safed-musli • Kannada: Dravanti • Malayalam: Veluttanilappana • Marathi: कुली Kuli • Sanskrit: मुसली Musli • Tamil: Tiravanticham • Telugu: Kuchhela, Sarala pagada; 
 
The only way to distinguish between the two is by digging up the plants. In C. borivilianum the tuber touches the stem whereas in C. tuberosum they are attached to the root fibres 
 
Leaves are cooked as seasonal vegetable.

Thank you … for the ID and the information…

I will assume this to be Chlorophytum borivalianum. Next time I come across it, I will try to l look for the tubers. However, I feel it is criminal to dig out such beautiful looking flowers 🙁


It is Chlorophytum tuberosum

Thank you … Is there any external characteristic which can differentiate C. tuberosum and C. borivalianum?
