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.?? Looks different as per 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 |
