Came across this herb (Commelinaceae sp.). at Matheran hills. I could spot only the flower buds..
Date/Time: 17-07-2010/ 12:10PM
Location: Matheran
Habitat: Wild
Plant Habit: Herb (15 to 20cm)
Flower buds: White coloured

Sounds interesting to me, but, why you said this is Commelinaceae...... why not Orchidaceae?
This could be Habenaria foliosa or gibsoni or panigrahiana. Habenaria digitata has green flowers but belongs to the same group.

Let the flower open then click some more pics and dont forget to smell the flower....!! and let us know whether you liked it or not :)).

Some Habenaria from Orchidaceae. Might be Habenaria digitata 

Habenaria digitata has green flowers!!
