I went on a walk and reached this place and found some Curculigo like leaves on the slopes. I was thinking, it has to be orchid and I took some pic, didnt want to dig out, but just checked by inserted my fingers in soil. And I was so foolish, the flowers were blooming just next to it at 1 distance. I laughed at myself
