What plant is this? : Attachments (1). 8 posts by 5 authors. I think this plant was posted some time ago. Request identification please? Seen in Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) Mumbai. It was a bit inaccessible so I couldn’t take close-ups. Thanks. Looks like Remusatia vivipara of Araceae. to me there are two plants, one with inflorescense is an Orchid and another with boad leaves is some colocasia sp. please confirm if it is only one plant Thanks … for the correction. Yes, you are right. I mistook the inflorescence for bulbils seen in Remusatia. Didn’t observe carefully, sorry & thanks. Usually Remusatia grows on trunk of old mango trees that is why it’s Marathi name is Rukhalu (Rukh means tree and alu for colocasia ) Thanks …, for the etymology. There is an orchid in middle, Peristylus plantagineus Oops! I have goofed up as I seem to have mixed up two species.
