spi-KAH-tum or spy-KAY-tum — grows ears (like corn), in spikes … Dave’s Botanary Jun 24, 2012 … at Yeoor Hills (part of Sanjay Gandhi National Park), Mumbai
commonly known as: marsh maranta, spiked arrowroot • Marathi: मरांटा maranta Native to: s India, Sri Lanka, s China, Indo-China References: Further Flowers of Sahyadri by Shrikant Ingalhalikar • Global Species more views: Jun 24, 2012 … at Yeoor Hills (part of Sanjay Gandhi National Park), Mumbai Oct 31, 2010 … at Yeoor Hills (part of Sanjay Gandhi National Park), Mumbai I had seen the leaves of this plant but not the flowers. Thanks for showing this unique sp. Have been seeing this plant for two years while exploring Yeoor Hills, and was getting more eager to see it flowering some day of the year — until few days back … clarified that it flowers in June, and that the flower spike rises just about 1 – 2 inches above the ground with just about a cm wide flower.
Sharing few photographs of “Stachyphrynium spicatum” (Family: Marantaceae) from Sanjay Gandhi National Park, Mumbai. Very good Discovery from SGNP
Plant for ID : SGNP,Mumbai : 221212 : AK-1: 2 images. No flowers, only leaves.
Leaves having a pointed end.
Plants approx 3 feet in height.
Id please. Ctenanthe compressa at which place in SGNP.. i guess in garden. not the forest area??? … looks like the marsh maranta … Stachyphrynium spicatum (Roxb.) K.Schum. (family: Marantaceae), … are you sure of the plant’s height as 3 ft ? … to me the height seems just 1 to 1.5 ft. You are right.The height was not 3 feet. It was an approximate height I had written.
On second thoughts, these are probably 1.5 to 2 feet maximum.
When you are travelling with a group, like I did with TAW, it is difficult to take pictures & also catch up with the group. As in the thick jungle, you do not want to be left behind.
Generally you have to remember the plants later, this can be confusing at times.
Thanks for correcting me.
…, these were found growing wild deep in the SGNP, near a stream and not in a garden.
Zingiber cernuum was found growing near it. Yes than it look like Stachyphrynium spicatum (Roxb.) Schum. (family Marantaceae) syn. Maranta spicata, Phrynium spicatum.. not commonly seen…
159 ID wild plant Zingiberaceae: 18 images. Stachyphrynium spicatum of family Marantaceae
