Thank you very much Rawat Sir, for key, illustrations, explaining characters all.
I have never seen one so that I can determine a species. Yet I request you to please look into the photographs one more time. I attach two enlarged photographs. The style in those two pics doesn't look like much longer than ovary. The illustration you have arrow marked clearly shows that in *L. himalensis* style extends to much above the anthers. Nidhan Sir's pics do not show this character. One more point, *L. himalensis* is confined to Himalayan region of Kashmir, HP, Sikkim, Bhutan and possibly in China (but in another name <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=250096014>). On the other hand *L. serotina* is distributed in Asia, Europe and North America. If we search images of *L. serotina* we will find many similar photographs in the net. Of-course perianth number would be six. I think this species is *L. serotina*. Perhaps https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/tmw7t9aQz1w/EEv-XVDz_VUJ is *L. himalensis* which usually have single flower bearing plants and style in image number DSC_1141.JPG looks significantly longer. What we see in Nidhan Sir's photo is possibly fruit with persistent style. The only point in favour of *L. himalensis* is green base inside the white tepals. But this character can also be seen in uploads of *L. serotina* form different corner of the world. Please correct me if anywhere I have gone wrong. Thank you very much again.
