This was seen by the roadside near Tamhini ghat near Pune, MH in Aug 2019.
Hopefully this is Zingiber diwakarianum.
Beautiful post but it would have been much better to view if images were rotated before posting Thanks … Trying to upload pics again with correct orientation.
I am unable to upload with correct orientation, am not sure why You have to rotate image at source, i.e., laptop. I have done that already, but it is not reflecting here.

Are you sure about the id Z. neesanum? … my belief same as … … me too have spotted this plant at various places around Pune and Satara at high altitudes. [image: Zingiber neesanum]<http://www.flickr.com/photos/dinesh_valke/5872344478/>
… and a link showing list of photos of this plant by everyone at flickr:
http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=Zingiber%20neesanum Please do let us know if this ID is far from Zingiber neesanum … and thus what would (more likely) this plant be. Am not much sure about the identity of the plant in the picture. It is not Z. neesanum Even i am a little confused over it… This is one of the most confusing gingers of India. I have been looking for the type and protologue but the type is missing and the protologue is insufficient for confirmation. But tentatively now placed in Z. neesanum “Plant Discoveries 2011 by BSI” has mentioned about Zingiber diwakarianum R Kr Singh. I think this will be Zingiber diwakarianum as per images and details herein.

Zingiberaceae Sp for ID. Photo taken near Kas during monsoon season . ![]() What is Zingiber neesanum anyways?: 1 images. Confusion on which name to use for which species remained a constant theme for the two ginger species depicted in the following photographs. Both Zingiber species occur in Western ghats and are widely distributed, yet their identity and names used for them remained a hotly debated topic in every forum interested in them, including ‘eflora of India’. Me and my co-authors have recently published a study which addressed this problem in detail and provided a solution for the same ✨Our results mainly conclude that 1) The Yellow flowered Zingiber species occurring in northern Western Ghats must be recognized with name Zingiber neesanum. 2) Recently proposed new name for the same species – Zingiber diwakarianum – must not be preferred 3) White flowered Zingiber species predominant in Central and Southern Western Ghats must be called by the name Zingiber anamalayanum. In addition to these 3 main conclusions we also pinpointed the origin of the said problem, how it persisted in time and how we can learn from our mistakes and not repeat the same again. We have also shed light on some interesting botanical history, importance of herbarium specimens, digitizing historical documents in connection with botany and much more. Henceforth the two species will be known by their correct name throughout the globe, facilitating their unambiguous identification. Everything under the sun in connection with these species will be much precise now, let it be assessing their conservation status or considering them from utilitarian point of view. . Following recent paper published in Taxon “Fixing stray traditions in gingers: The identity and nomenclatural history of Zingiber neesanum and other entwined names (wiley.com)” dealing with and resolving century old confusion of the names Z.neesanum (J.Graham) Ramamoorthy and Z.macrostachyum Dalzell. which had a long ambiguous history with incorrect application of name Z. neesanum for white flowered Zingiber found widely in Central and Southernmost Western Ghats. The lack of fieldwork in type locality and historical confusion also lead to publication of a new name Z. diwakarianum R.Kr.Singh, now to be treated as a heterotypic synonym of true Z. neesanum. Authors of this paper confirmed through extensive field visit in type locality that true Z.neesanum (J.Graham) Ramamoorthy originally described as Alpinia neesana J.Graham from Maharashtra (Khandala & Mahabaleshwar) have cadmium yellow flowers and is endemic to Northern Western Ghats (so far known from only 8 districts of Maharashtra) while widespread and much variable white flowered Zingiber with purplish streaked labellum that was for long treated as Z.neesaum represents other species first named as Z. macrostachyum Dalzell which however is illegitimate name as was not validly published (having no type designated in protologue), thus newly described Z. anamalayanum Sujanapal and Sasidh. forms to be first validly published name for white flowered Zingiber widely distributed in Central and Southern Western Ghats.
As the paper is not freely available so I have added a brief summary and one can go through the abstract on the above given link. . Curcuma caulina…….please validate: 1 image. I think image may be insufficient. Zingiber neesanum (=Z. divakarianum) . References:
