ខ្ញែរ

Noun kind of vine with hairy brown bean-shaped fruit (it causes intense itching when it comes in contact with the skin)

Noun castor-oil plant (Ricinus communis; it has small spiky fruit; the leaves are soaked in water to prepare a bath for newborn babies and a medicinal oil is extracted from the fruit)

Noun the castor oil plant, Ricinus communis

I showed this to a Khmer English teacher and he said this IS NOT castor oil plant but showed me a photo of another plant with different shaped fruit (similar to Tamarind but fuzzy) and said this plant a different one with hairy brown bean shaped fruit. When it touches the skin it causes itching. So possibly a relative to castor oil plant, but not sure.
