Herb ID request – RK62 – 17-Dec-2012: Request identification of this short herb seen in Tungareshwar. It is around 1 foot tall and is flowering now. The leaves are aromatic. At first I thought of Blumea eriantha which was identified by … in October but the fragrance of this plant’s leaves is distinctly different from that one which smelt of Ajwain / caraway. Here is the link to the that earlier post Is it a kind of Hieracium? I think Blumea … please compare your plant with my photos of Blumea belangeriana (ID got from …). Thanks a lot … for the link. It does look like the same plant. To me also appears close to images at Blumea belangeriana DC., as initially suggested by … Blumea sp, possibly oxyodonta. It is erect one Then unlikely to be oxyodonta. To me appears close to images at Blumea belangeriana DC.

Came across this herb at Ganapatipule.
Can this plant be Gynura aurantiaca (Blume) de Candolle in A. P. de Candolle and A. L. P. P. de Candolle, Prodr. 6: 300. 1838. ? Does not look like and leaves are not clear. More likely to be a species of Blumea It is Blumea belangeriana DC. as per comparative images at Blumea
