Seen this Asteraceae sp. near Mahe Bridge, Ladakh (Altitude: Approx:14500 ft).

To me it looks like Cichorium intybus (chicory) only


Yes, i agree with … comment.


A Cichorium sp., but to me appears different from Cichorium intybus….. in leaves, as well as flower stalks…. even the involucral bracts are different… heads are few in number on long peduncles… may be my doubts are false…


To me it looks like Lactuca tatarica
