Yes Garg ji, it is likely Oenothera biennis however i am not entirely sure as we have to look at the petals size and stigma etc. to get sure.
I think this is from wild unlike my O. biennis which is from cultivation but i know that there is one Oenothera sp. which has escaped into wild in Kullu district that i had also encountered last year in September, this year i will study that plant to find out its correct identity. Till then you may treat it as O. biennis. Best regards Ashutosh Sharma On Sat 4 May, 2019, 4:01 PM J.M.
