Hi, I have collected lot of specimens of B. mollis for essential oil extraction and the major difference I found in B. mollis that whole plant is aromatic while the other closely allied species B. lacera only the heads are aromatic. One other thing in the photograph the heads definitely are not in full bloom and ofcourse not yellow (by seeing the photograph) to me they appear slightly white with tinge of purple so I will go with B. mollis
