The three that seem most likely for your area are Rumex crispus, obtusifolius, and paraguayensis. Your plants seem to have quite a few leaves coming out of the inflorescence, so paraguayensis is a good candidate. A closer shot of the flowers would help.

Yeah, I never see R. crispus looking like that here.

Hi bunti, I'm interested in the chukkakoora seeds. I have bitter melon seeds that I saved from last year for exchange. I sent an email with my address. Please let me know if you still have them available and what I would need to do. Thanks!

There are 5 other ones that are flowering but I don’t think I saw any ones that looks different than the one in the pic. Surprised how they could all be male since they were started from seed. Are most species just male or was the probability just random?
