Perhaps by this time it is clear that this species cannot be *L. aspera*; please also note as per the monograph *L. chinensis* (Retz.) R. Br. is confined to South India - AP, Karnataka, TN and Kerala. Neither it can be *L. biflora* (no. of flowers and distribution are the reason).
My view is it has to be one of *L. decemdentata* var. *decemdentata* or *L. lanata* var. *lanata* .........depends first on stem hair character. For its sessile upper leaves and lamina I would say *L, lanata* var. *lanata*, sometimes feature photographs are needed than better photography.
