Pl. check Senecio kumaonensis Jeffrey & S.C.Chen ??
Thanks, …, Pl. check with the description at Attachment I had enclosed is identical description.
By then way I realize now that it is not matching because of nature of plant which is twining in this case and elevation as well. I guess it could be some other sp. Senecio buimalia Buch.-Ham. ex D.Don ??
Could not find description of the plant and flowering season.
Thank you …! Senecio buimalia Buch.-Ham. ex D.Don Accepted name in all links : Cissampelopsis buimalia (Buch.-Ham. ex D.Don) C.Jeffrey & Y.L.Chen
