Request for proper ID.

Didymocarpus sure. Beautiful, not seen in Uttarakhand.

This is definitely Didymocarpus, most possibly it is Didymocarpus oblonga

Thank you for trying to ID the plant and it looks like the same as suggested by you. But I could

find a single picture in the web to verify it properly.

Pl. click on the following: Link 1
