Usha Di, Do not know what is pl480, heard of wheat viariety, as in - http://www.himalmag.com/component/content/article/507-pl-480-and-the-infidel-weed.html .
The place where i found this plant was by the side of a residential house. It was on the margin of a vacant land lying beside a semi-urban road. I think the owner of that house or someone living nearby planted this plant once and left unattended for years.
