I would have definitely said Phalaris minor on seeing the above photographs, this is so close…thanks for showing..

This is Phalaris minor

Thanks … for correction. I had not known about Phalaris minor when in Kashmir, and saw it for the first time in Delhi.

As reported in FBI Phalaris minor does not ascend above 1500 m. This was growing at alt of 1700 m. May be it has now extended to Kashmir valley.
