. Chincherinchee – other names: I have some old photgraphs as mentioned of flowers we had grown in Delhi. I had identified one of the flower photographs I had as a Chincherinchee or Star of Bethlehem from flowersofindia.net I wanted to know if there is any other common name for it in India? I think I remember the nursery where I bought the bulb had referred to it by some other name… .
Garden Flower For ID : Nasik : 05FEB15 : AK-14 : 5 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (1) Came across this old picture of mine taken at a plant nursery in Nasik.
Cultivated, garden plant with White flowers.
Id please. I beg your pardon, I’m unable to open one of the images due to upload errors in email, but from one image it is sure that this is a member of Asparagaceae (similar aspects for Liliaceae), because number of perianth 06, stamens 06 and most probably a species of Ornithogalum{Ornithogalum thyrsoides Jacq.} may be frequently known as some “Wonder flower or Chinkerinchee”. Thanks to you and … for the follow up and id. I recollect to have seen these in Kodaikanal. .
