Please see http://www.kew.org/herbcatimg/378595.jpg. efi page on Tricholepis amplexicaulis This must be Tricholepis glaberrima which stands about a metre tall, with flower-head of the size as seen in your 3rd pic.

Smooth tricholepis – A Nervine Agent: In herbal medicine, the nervine agent found in the plant is really useful in treating nervous disorders.
The Smooth tricholepis, an erect herb, grows up to 2 ft tall.

I presume this is tricholepis amplexicaulis and not Tricholeis radicans?
Photographed recently in Sanjay Gandhi National Park, Mumbai. This plant attracts butterflies and other insects. A Crab Spider had successfully caught a Grey Pansy butterfly that came to feed. On the ground below i noticed a wing of a Great Eggfly that too must have fallen prey to the lurking Crab spider. Lovely pictures. It appears so to me Tricholepis amplexicaulis : 3 posts by 2 authors.
…, During my tracking of higher area in Panchamari plateau of Satpura Tiger Reserve, I found this herb, which also looks like your Tricholepis amplexicaulis. Please confirm the ID
Thanks in advance This herb with different and interesting morphology seen in its full lilac colour at the south end of the national park in Mumbai on 8 Nov. ’09.
Leaves are alternate, sessile, linear oblong. Leafy bracts, Outer bracts linear lanceolate with very long recurved bristles, inner bracts longer than outer bracts with shorter bristles.
Ref:Flowers of Sahyadri, Vol 1 pg: 186. by S. Ingalhalikar. Plant for ID SMP2- 30/12/2010: This is the Western Hill Thistle [Tricholepis amplexicaulis]. I feel this is Tricholepis glaberimma. Fair enough, but Tricholepis glaberrima is a smalll annual herb 50 – 100 cms tall, whereas the plant in question here is a shrub. I would personally go with t. glaberrima because Leaves are not amplexicaul at base I also feel it may be Tricholepis glaberrima only. .

Dicoma tomentosa Cass. SN April 32 : 8 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (2).
Dicoma tomentosa Cass, Fam: Asteraceae;
Spiny herb near Ananthapur, Andhrapradesh efloraofindia google group is very useful to me. But photos of Dicoma tomentosa are wrong. May the photos are tricholepis which are mention for Dichoma. If anything wrong in my mail please ignore It is Dicoma tomentosa only, you can not come to a conclusion by one image only, compare it with images of Flowers of India, EOL etc images and characters of the plant. Thank you …, Both are related genera, In Dicoma leaf is entire, where as in Tricholepis leaves are pinnatisect. This image represents Tricholepis glaberrima DC. The season we visited is dry summer and I thought to be dried plant of Dicoma. Please check my images sir. which collected by me. first three attachments Tricholepis and 4th and 5th one is dicoma sps.

Malhargad near Pune, MH :: Asteraceae for ID :: ARK2020-099 : 5 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (3) Seen this plant at Malhargad near Pune in September 2020 on a small hillock.
Is it some Tricholepis?
Requested to please ID.
Looks like Tricholepis amplexicaulis C.B.Clarke ! Thank you …
Even I thought so.
But these flowers were very small compared to T. amplexicaulis that I have seen.
Can this be T. glaberrima? Yes, … I also feel more close to Tricholepis glaberrima DC. as per comparative images at Tricholepis
Trichlepis sp from Jodhpur : 4 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (2) Pl. check with images of Tricholepis glaberrima DC. as per comparative images at Tricholepis Out of 2 sp, Tricholepis glaberrima DC. and Tricholepis radicans (Roxb.) Wight having distribution in Rajasthan, Tricholepis glaberrima DC. looks more close. .
the leaves of this plant do indeed resemble those posted by you as a vegetable from Pali. It has been puzzling me for some time.
In your first two images here the upper leaves are visible and they differ from the lower leaves. It is the upper leaves which are more familiar to me.
I think this plant is an Asteraceae which flowers late or after the rains. It may be Tricholepis glaberrima. The branching pattern seen partly in your first two photos would also match with Tricholepis.
This plant is sometimes known as Brahmadandi and it seems to have several ethnomedicinal applications and possibly nutritional uses as well. If you saw the larger leaves for sale only in the month of August this would tally with the emergence of the tender new leaves before the plant shoots up and becomes more rigid. Thanks … for this exhaustive analysis. I found an illustration of the plant: http://plantillustrations.org/illustration=162222
And this article on the medicinal properties with a photo of the young leaves https://journal.environcj.in/index.php/ecj/article/view/71/132
It seems that the local name given by … is close enough!
Well done for finding the plant in the field as well.    Pali near Khopoli, MH :: Vegetable for ID :: ARK2019-60 : 12 posts by 5 authors. Attachments (3)
This vegetable was on sale at the local vendor. This was at Pali near Khopoli, MH in Aug 2019.
He called it ‘Dhamni’ or ‘Dhanni’ in Marathi. It is available only during this time.
Requested to please ID.
Probably leaf of Corchorus species. reminds me of jute // pat saag Jute is manufactured from fibres of Corchorus olitorius/ capsularis I know that but in markets its called jute saag, including in queens any where the Bangladeshis come to sell and buy these. Thanks for the feedback …
However, I do not think this is Corchorus aestuans or olitorius, particularly based on the venation of the leaves. I clicked a Corchorus just close by and the venation is different. See attached. To me appears some Urticaceae member ? Noted with thanks. But no clue … My guess was Corchorus, Leaf venation of Corchorus urticifolius looks different from High resolution specimen from India from GBIF. Leaf venation also does not matches with Laportea interrupta Perilla frutescens ?? I do not think matches with Perilla It does look like Perilla. They are tender leaves of Clerodendrum serratum = Rotheca serrata I guess not ! Maybe Tricholepis glaberrima as per discussions at Peth Kothaligad, September 2021 :: Plant for ID :: ARK2022-008 Is it used as vegetable as mentioned by …? .
I think it appears close to images at Certainly the habitat is right . Wildflower ID: 1 image. Elevation? Habitat and leaf images ?? Tricholepis radicans! Post plant completely to confirm once again To me appears more closer to images at
