Pankaj Ji, very very beautiful flowers indeed... I am also after this, got some withered flowers of this during my field surveys of Morni Hills, when I was doing my Ph.D... was also common in the grasses of Kurukshetra University Lawns, unfortunately I cannot find this in recent years...hopefully we will find this somewhere in Haryana...
