Thanks very much Viplav ji for this clarification. Me too had a feeling that these words "shunu mukram" do not belong to Gujarati. Perhaps some words of foreign language mixed inadvertently, and must have got copy-pasted in several sites.
I am not sure whether this wild-growing high altitude plant is found distributed in Gujarat. I will therefore not put any name for Gujarati at present. Thank you once again. This name was thoroughly intriguing! Regards.
