Mariangeles:i am not being stingy at all. This information is for the benefit of us all, isn't it? Speaking of, are there meetup areas here on nairaland where members living in certain cities come together to identify themselves by location? |

Kobojunkiee: They’ve told you it’s elephant grass, you no gree take am. Have you thought maybe it’s a different specie of elephant grass compared to the one you know? Speaking of, are there meetup areas here on nairaland where members living in certain cities come together to identify themselves by location? I’m not sure. |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Kobojunkiee: 7:43pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
Mariangeles:That is exactly why telling me it is elephant grass means nothing then. Telling me a flower is a flower does not help me narrow down to finding the name of the particular flower that I seek, does it? |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Mariangeles(f): 7:45pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
Kobojunkiee: Ok. What about mangoes? There are different varieties, but we know all of them as mangoes. |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Kobojunkiee: 7:52pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
Mariangeles:If I was looking for a particular species of mango, announcing they are all mangoes wouldn't really help now, would it? It's the same thing. I know Achara is definitely not Elephant grass (pennisetum purpureum), nor the common species found all over Nigeria. Telling me that it is Elephant grass does not help me as I would need more information than that to go on. That is why I asked for help in obtaining an image of the actual plant. |

Munzy14: I dikwa sure si I ji ike ya? Happy Valentine’s Day. Low key. One of our orders couldn’t be delivered on time because the dispatcher was held by traffic. |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Mariangeles(f): 9:11pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
Kobojunkiee: How about you create a thread for that? |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Kobojunkie: 9:16pm On Feb 14, 2022 |
Mariangeles:Where? |

Kobojunkiee: I have it growing like weeds besides my shop in my village. I am about to harvest some tomorrow. I'll get you some pictures |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Kobojunkie: 7:58pm On Jul 06, 2022 |
ndbros4justice:Harvest! Abeg, help me with pictures of every aspect of the plant make me too know am well well. I just cut down some elephant grass in the backyard here and it looked nothing like a charm, not even close to its roots. |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Cousin9999: 1:48pm On Jul 07, 2022 |
It looks more like lemongrass than leeks or scallion. |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Kobojunkie: 8:44pm On Jul 07, 2022 |
Ndbros4justice, any updates available for us on the Achara plant and its harvesting? If you get even video, abeg make you post am make we see.. |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by ndbros4justice: 2:59pm On Jul 10, 2022 |
Kobojunkie: Sorry I didn't give update but I'll try to get some pictures. I totally forgot because of my activities. Actually the Achara can grow beyond being edible and will look like a flexible sugar cane |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Kobojunkie: 3:02pm On Jul 10, 2022 |
ndbros4justice:Oh wow... I didn't know that. I desperately want to see pictures of the plant so I can investigate and learn what it is from what it is not. Your effort is much appreciated. |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by ndbros4justice: 7:52pm On Jul 10, 2022 |
Kobojunkie: This is elephant grass
|
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Kobojunkie: 7:58pm On Jul 10, 2022 |
ndbros4justice:Ok. And Achara is not elephant grass, right? |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by ndbros4justice: 8:32pm On Jul 10, 2022 |
Achara

Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by ndbros4justice: 8:35pm On Jul 10, 2022 |
Kobojunkie:I know the other as Elephant grass we call it Achara NWA nkita meaning Achara for a puppy. Achara has meatier stem. |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Kobojunkie: 8:54pm On Jul 10, 2022 |
ndbros4justice:That is what I have been saying but weirdly, I can't really spot the difference between the pictures you posted. |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by ndbros4justice: 7:04am On Jul 11, 2022 |
Kobojunkie: From a distance you can hardly tell the difference but Achara has a fatter stem that makes it look like corn |
Re: Who Knows What This Plant Is Called In English? by Kobojunkie: 12:47pm On Jul 11, 2022 |
ndbros4justice:Interesting! So how do you plant achara? |
