pls validate

Yes … Remember the place. Thanks for uploading.


These Asteraceae are so difficult to identify(For me). In general all look like Sun flowers to me.
We should try to make a list of these SUN FLOWERS which are garden escapes.


Good suggestion …, Even H annus has been observed as escape by me at some places


I was going to say garden escapee as soon as I saw the pics… thanks … for confirming it…


Yes This was a Garden Escape

plant ID: Could someone ID the attached plants for me? The pictures were taken in the unkempt yard of Rajput School, Chopasni (Rajasthan) in November.
They obviously don’t need irrigation! Can someone shed some light on how they could be propagated. For the flowers, we could save the seed, but the other plant?


The first flower to me is Verebesina enceloides and the second can be Hyoscyamus albus, both can be propagated by seeds well.


Second one is a henbane… and first one reminds me of the asters of autumn…
First one seems to have gone to seed already, better hurry and start collecting those white fluffy “flowerheads”…
henbane on the other hand develops small capsules that will pop and release hundred of light brown seeds size of mustard … be careul of tiny sharp hairs that prick the skin and lodge in… better use a
piece of fabric (handkerchief) to catch the pod ..about 8 to 10 mm long … collect them before the pop open…
ps second one is medicinal…

Mexican Sunflower Tithonia diversifolia
Bhindawas Lake Bird Sanctuary, Jhajjar, Haryana on 28 March 09.


I doubt it to be Tithonia diversifolia. See the link for it: http://floridagardener.com/pom/tithonia.htm


Thank you. Before posting the pic, I was searching the net for this spc. Tthe leaves on the net looked different from the one I saw. But, Isaac Kehimkar’s Common Indian Wild Flowers (page 68, serial No. 102) depicts it ditto. Comments from experts welcome.

Cosmos sp.??


Coreopsis?


It is different .  I will post the photos of Tithonia diversifolia in my garden  in due course.


Photos attached h/w.
Also sending a link to my article on this plant. https://epaper.starofmysore.com/epaper/edition/1432/star-of-mysore/page/8


But leaves do not match as per Coreopsis
