Garg ji there seems to be some mix up of Anaphalis specimens in our posts. A. busua is characterised by distinctly decurrent leaf bases. This is seen clearly in my specimen from Manali in this post Asteraceae Week Part 1-Radiate heads: Anaphalis busua from near Baratkhai and Manali-GS12 (google.com) <https://groups.google.com/g/indiantreepix/c/Lhl_VmsViEo> Rest of messages from Baratkhai, I think don't belong to A. not even A. contorta, because leaves are densely velvety beneath in A. contorta Similarly above images of Saroj ji have no trace of decurrent base, although auricles are found.We may have to find better ID for them.
