Well Gurcharan ji ... Swertia flowers at Panchagani made me think of this
post ... led me to believe that these tiny flowers (could be half the size
compared to those of Panchagani) would be indeed Swertia .. smaller in size
owing to some reasons not known to me !!!

Now that they are not Swertia, the search for its identity is on !! makes me
more curious, too.
Many thanks Gurcharan ji for the clarity.

Regards.
